Making PCBs @ LHS

Instructions for making a PCB

Project:PCB_Making A general description of the process
Pcb_etching_instructions Some specifics about using our equipment

Descriptions of the equipment

Equipment/PCB_etch_station A description of the etching tank and sink most often used at the hackspace
Project:PCB_Making/Cupric_chloride_etchant Maintenance instructions for the Cupric Chloride etchant

Workshops

Project:DIY_PCB_Making A list of the steps, intended as an outline for a workshop session
Project:PCB_Design_with_Eagle_CAD Topics for a workshop on using a popular crippleware design package, Eagle CAD

Less useful pages
