Me, i just use toner transfer, because is simpler, i wish to use direct print for layout and soldermask if possible, but i still didn't even finish the cnc :| The page author really uses more prints glued for better opacity. Professional transparencies are like old photo cameras negatives. Burned with laser, and revealed and fixed and let dry. Using emulsion as resist instead of the dry film I think will archive a more successful rate with plated holes. The dry film can lift on small ring holes, filling the hole can be a solution. So I look for it, only know that link reporting success with the method. If you have the benzenophenone, and are willing to try this. I think we all appreciate reports with soldermask also. Maybe only part A (resin) epoxy glue. And i am curious about the acrylic resin mixture (never heat it!). I hope the automatic translation worked. The important part is: For 3ml emulsion use 5 drops of sensiblizer. For 3 ml PVA glue use 2 drops, either both will do 15cm x 15cm board area minimum. Where emulsion is the one from the silkscreen store. And he refers to never use running water, just wetting the thing carefully with water. PS: My bad english and the automatic correction dependency, leaved the word 'i' instead of 'he' in the previous email, for which i am sorry. (among hood instead of wood)
