Home Made PCB!
For many years I have wanted to be able to use Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) for my prototypes and robotics projects. At long last (and thanks to spring break!) I have finally experienced my first success at home printed PCBs. I will later post a tutorial on how I did it and how you can to. All it takes is a laser printer ($30 on Craigslist), an old magazine (EDN works nicely), a blank circuit board (Radio Shack), and PCB etching solution (Radio Shack). Below are a few pics of my first project, a camera interface board for my senior capstone project Skratcam Stereo Vision System.
