Homebrew PCBs

I also read that and it sounded feasible so I ran right out to 
Staples and got some of the BIG label sheets and tried this.  It 
transfers quicker than paper or photo paper, but it seems to 
be "pitted" really bad and I couldnt get a nice uniform covering that 
I felt would be useable once etched.  I put my design right in the 
middle of the sheet and proceeded as I do with photo paper typically.
