Homebrew PCBs

All,

After some busy weeks I finally had the time to give the PCB making 
process a second try. It went way better then last time, but I still 
have some work to do to get it perfect.
I'm just popping this message to let you know that the previous attempt 
failed because I used the "all black" setting of the printer. I figured 
that using only black ink would make the pattern come out darker, but 
that's not the case. You can easily see it's way darker when you 
unselect that option and allow the printer to use all inks.



greetings,

Ronald
