hello, I am looking for a method of plating the holes of Printed Circuit Boards by hand. The University here has the ability to manufacture Double sided PCBs, but not plating them. I have made due up till now by drilling small via holes and running feed through wires, but there must be a better way. This knowledge would be useful, considering the number of hobbyests who do not have the money to commercially manufacture boards. I have heard of a pen that lets you draw conductive traces, has anyone tried plating holes with this? Or perhaps have a source for fine copper foil?, or a way of getting solder drawn through the hole making a connection? or some other hair-brained idea? :-) Thanks. Jon Freise jon@cis.ksu.edu
