About 15 years ago I did a lot of photo etching of PCB's and metal
panels using processes similar to that described by the gentleman from
Iowa State (Sorry, but I can't get at your real name right now).

Although you can get very good results using these methods, you end up
having to use some very toxic and noxious sutff.  So even though I'd
like to experiment again, my conscience bugs me.

Lately I've seen articles about board cleaning solvents based on
something like citrus fruits that are suposed to be more
environmentally benign.  I wonder if there are photoresist/developer
pairs available that are also benign to me and the rest of the world?
