G10 dust!

2002-06-03 by Alan Marconett KM6VV

Hi Listies,

I had the opportunity to mill some more PCB material this last weekend. 
Phenolic and G10 Gass Epoxy.  Boy does the G10 make nasty dust!  John,
how can you stand it!  I had been cutting up scrap phenolic for testing,
but ran out.

And I think I just discovered something, if phenolic board is OK for the
circuits you want to do, the cutters PROBABLY won't get DULL nearly as
fast!  And it's a lot cleaner.  I LOVE G10 and FR4, but maybe I'll try
to find some more phenolic board (single sided is fine)!
