I've noticed they also sell replacement bulbs, much cheaper than the
real type of bulb, in a pack of 4.

I may try sunlight first, I only need to make 2 boards with the same
design 6 times on each,  I'm in a rush for these but once done I may
not need another board until about 6 month from now.........

For what I have spent on trying to do this, and thw eeks of trying
things, I could have had them done at one of those china fab houses
and still had change...........

My holding out came from the saying of give a man a fish and he eats
for a day, teach him to fish....
Wished I'd ordered pizza.
