I've tried some *REALLY* strange ways to do this, but none of them worked out very well. One of the more difficult things for me to do is drill the %$*^&@ things. If there are lots of ICs on the board, drilling for 14/16/24 pin dips becomes nearly impossible to do well. Keep in mind that I have a limited budget to work with here! Anyone know of a firm that will make boards from artwork for a reasonable price?? Do these dry tranfer etch patterns really work?? (but then you're stuck with the drilling problem again!) HELP.
