Toner transfer

2003-12-29 by Pedro Perez de Ayala Rull

Hi all, once again I'm a little bit late... I posted a message some time
ago, talking about my experience with toner transfer. I'll briefly say that
I have been doing 8mil wide traces with 8mil clearance boards with very few
problems using an HP 1010 laser printer, a DSC laminator and Time magazine
paper. Some people asked if I could upload some pictures; I have added them
to the photos section, in the directory called "TT 8mil" there is one
picture of a test that I did wich I cannot tell exact traces width, but
those two traces going between 0.1 mil spaced pads is pretty much
self-explainatory. The other two pictures are form a part of a 5 by 6 inch
board that I am working on, I only showed a part of the board to show it in
detail but the whole board had no errors, the only errors I have right now
is aligning both sides of the board and drilling accurately, as you can see
in the etched picture.

    Hope this helps someone, since I had to make many trials to achieve
these results and would like this info to be useful.

    Thank you all for this wonderful group!!,
    Pedro
