Make: Online : PCB creation process

PCB creation process

Exposing.Sized
Bob posted up a follow up to the previous PCB post - his photo resist PCB process - "Don't be scared away with this method. It's easy! The only thing I do different is I use regular ordinary fluorescent lights ($8.00 at WalMart for a small fixture with bulb). Exposure times go from 90 seconds to 10 minutes but it works just the same. I don't have much in the way of descriptions but I have pictures of every step I use here" - Link.

Nice walkthrough, I was wondering what the deets were on this.

The regular fixtures are cheap, but sometimes you can find the 24" blacklights (with a bulb) from walmart for only $10. I have one laying around.
