Calm down your success depends on it

[caspergeel]

Can U please tell me what is on the copper board that reacts with the UV light. I use KONTAKT CHEMIE Positv 20, and my board doesn't allways come out the way I want it! Most of the time I have to spary/expose/devolep the board several times before it comes out the way I want it! I am thinking of using something else than Positv 20. Any ideas...? Thanx for the video!

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

@caspergeel You must be very excited eh

[caspergeel]

@X2YeZCAMCNC It is more than a year later! And I just want to say thanx for the help! I made a few boards and got the hang of it now! I put up a few flyers on campus and now I am the local PCboard guy! Making a few bucks on the side! LOL. Again thanx for the video! Helped me alot!

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

@caspergeel Positive acting photo-sensitive coating. You can spray on or buy the board with it already applied to the surface.

[chickenpoper]

could i use a regular copper sheet for the board?

[frankyrocksmyrocks]

this kind of stuff is what makes you tube great. thanks!

[vdub350]

Where did you get the transparency from? Here it's about 150PLN = 50USD ($) for a pack of 20.

[MJ4everNY]

Great presentation... i like your style. one thing: i would love to see that from start to finish. kindda missing the start

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

Do you mean the board layout process?

[TheCynicalAtheist]

Great videos man, heard about this stuff but never seen it in practice, only ever used stripboard.

Was thinking about making a couple of my own guitar effects pedals and this may come in handy for future reference.

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

Thanks You can get the CorelDraw Template file I use to make the board layout on ebay. Search for "DIY Printed Circuit Board Layout Template CorelDraw 10"

[jrcboy]

Hate to break it to you, but your DANGER is backwards XD

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

It is intended to be backwards. The copper side is the reverse of the layout. On the front component side, the word DANGER will be the right way.

[cybercorfu]

@X2YeZCAMCNC yeah sure its wrong

[rpm8640]

The copper bd has a photo sensitive layer right? Where did you get it? What was the item that you removed that was near the copper at the start of the video?

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

Yes a positive acting photo sensitive layer. You can buy them online. They are made by M.G. Chemicals. Made in Canada. The transparency I created (board layout) is place on the board and then exposure just like a photo and then I develop the "photo" board.

Hi Friend,

Very nice work, I am very impres but can you help me to build 48 volt hub motor controller for my own ebike.

Thanking you

with best regards

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

Hey I can shoot you a printed circuit board, solder on my preprogrammed micro controller and you can install the rest of the parts indicated on the parts list. The printed circuit board will fit inside a HAMMOND 1455 series aluminum case. Or I could completely built the board and test for you. Let me know.

[srav953]

What software do you use to create schematic representations? I want a Educational software that allows me to test it out(like clicking a 'Play' button...which will start the circuit)!

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

I am going to make some boards soon. Let me know if you want one.

[sumir000]

good job............

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

Thanks

[pingpongme]

Great!

But how do you make the film/sheet?

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

I create the board layout in CorelDraw and get it printed onto overhead transparency at UPS Store.

[SirKThomp]

Hi Great job, methyl hydrate is that a M.G. product and is it the same as alcohol or acetone? Are your suppose to do the methyl hydrate after you've etch the board as a last step?

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

alcohal and I is what I use to remove the presensitized coating from the copper clad and it can be done just before or after drilling the board.

[evolution2015]

Hi, great job. i`m a little confused, are you using a solid piece of copper or some kind of board with a thin layer of copper on each side. thank you

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

Fiberglass board with a thin layer of copper on each side

[Zarkow]

solid copper, haha, yeah, that would be awesome... ;)

[PFTECHMETAL]

Great method!

[X2YeZCAMCNC]

Thank you.
