Hi Stefan- I followed your work on this project with interest. I hoped it would work, but I agree with you completely that it was worth the effort. I have...

Very rewarding work. Are the boards through hole plated or just plated on the outside ? I only ask because I wasn't sure if you have the electroless up and...
Markus, It's looking good. Did you measure the thickness of the board before you started plating ? How much extra copper do you now have to etch away when you...
Hi Adam ... Yes, they are through hole plated. :-) ... Mr. D. Bungard - is very helpfull. He is reachable on the phone and also answers e-mails (usually within...
