DO IT, GO!

i look forward to the results for a while now.
I still have my doubts but maybe in the end it works.
the resist pattern printers i see on the web look certainly
like inkjets.....

i think it is only a question of the printing head.
i have wasted my time with a bubblejet, maybe if i had
bought a piezo for it i would now already print my boards this
way.
