creating pcb

Design Concepts
1

Hi All,\

 I have access to a lot of copper coated pcb material and thought that I would give the press-n-peel method a try.  Is there artwork on the site I can use for this purpose?  Is it the .brd files that is opened with the Eagle software?

Thanks,

John

I already sent the converted .brd files to Poeleq (if I remember right). They’re graphical files (.tif I think) and can be directly printed. As soon as they’re up in the portal, you can download them there.

Or you can make it on your own (a little tricky at the beginning): Open the .brd file with Eagle, export it as an image (hiding all not copper layers!!) and make it black/white (and deleting here and there). Not to hard, but quite some time.

Greets. :slight_smile:

Thanks!

I’ll check out the portal.

you can also print directly from the .brd file! i also tick the “black” and "solid"options on eagle.

If interested I have made some .pdf files that have 4 or 6 pcb tracks on a A4 paper, so you don’t waste paper.

Wow, thanks Ucarlos,  :)

Sure, I’d love to get the pdf files.

please attach them to superfeed@yahoo.com

And send them to Poeleq, too.  ;D

if someone could either post the pdf or image files up it’d be good for others reading the thread. If noone’s got any webspace mail them to me [tub at tubs dot org dot uk] and i’ll chuck them up somewhere.

well, i don’t think you would recieve them at yahoo. they have attachment maximum size i think, so I sent them to poeloq for the portal. (they’re 3,5MB).

hope he uploads them soon.

If not, I’ll send them to anyone wanting them!

Why aren’t those .pdf/tiffs on midibox.org? Everything… anything? No updates, for a while, whatsoever..

Sorry, no dis -  but midibox.org could be a  download site for .mid files (as I got, for search results for “midibox”, while a go), maybe some day it will, as nobody seems to care about it :frowning:

OK, Poeloq might need so help, but I don’t: linking something, from somewhere:

<a href:="http://somewhere">something</a>

Did took me some minutes to figure out,  but shouldn’t be that difficult to anyone writing any html..

Sorry, still no dis, – but: Why ppl still ask for PCB images? Because they read FAQ?

Bye, Moebius

You couldn’t mail them to me too could ya? :slight_smile: [tub at tubs dot org dot uk]

Bought some board and etching fluid yesterday, i’m itching to give it a go…

Cheers, Tub.
