Hello--

I inquired about this topic (deposition of plastic extruded resist 
directly onto copperclad board via 3-D printer) a while
ago. Has anyone recently experimented with this approach? It's the 
inverse of a subtractive (milling) process,
but the CAD/CAM software should equally well apply.


Thanks, and 73--
