Homebrew PCBs

i have made great board like this using the jet
printphoto multiproject-photopaper 60 sheets is 14
bucks at wally world just set the print as dark as
posible and clean the board well let the board soake
in hot hot water till it peels off dont pull it will
come loose on it's own pin holes can also come from
uneven ironing and contamenents on the board
good luck
