Hi all I have read conflicting types of paper to use for the laser toner transfer method 1 Photo glossy for laser printer 2 as above but for inkjet 3 matt for...
... Dave, I have used glossy magazine pages, the poorer the quality paper the better!! The free catalogue type [thin]that comes in the post gives me the best...
IMHO, the qualities that make paper useful for TT are either: 1. They have a water-soluble coating on them, or 2. They are glossy so the toner just doesn't...
Cheers for the replies I do struggle with the concept of magazine paper as it is already printed on and my mind says it will come off onto the board so glossy...
Dave, The toner used in laser printers is a form of plastic, if you get a paper jam in your printer and have to remove the paper before it has passed through...
... The ink soaks into the paper. The toner stays on top and bonds to the paper's surface. You soften the toner with the laminator, it gets sticky and glues...
... indeed. the reason is magazine, or most form of bulk printing use dyes, which are soaked-up by paper and work by staining the cellulose. laser toner OTOH...
Me, too. I will never use anything else. Fantastic stuff. I used to use glossy magazine covers, but even with the same magazine there was way too much...
you are correct...to much heat and pressure and the ink from the paper transfers as well! ... -- Paul Mateer, AA9GG Elan Engineering Corp. www.elanengr.com ...
Looked up the product number on the package and, actually, I use HP CG988A, Presentation Paper, 32lb. Works perfectly every time down to 5 mil. traces....
The print on the magazine pages is an oxygen curing ink that doesn't melt when heated. The toner from the laser printer is a pigmented plastic material that...
I dabbled with magazine paper, while it worked fine, the extra overhead of cutting it out and lining that bit up on an a4 sheet was much higher than using an...
Greetings, I would like to pull together a representative collection of example Gerber files to use for testing an app I'm developing for the Mac. I've done a...
I apologize if I am hijacking this post but it is in relation to toner transfer paper. How do you send your paper through the laser printer? I have a Brother...
Hi all, A couple of weeks ago I inquired about small drill presses for PCB work. I'm kinda leaning toward the Proxxon 38128. Looks like the drill press comes...
... Since you're dealing with PC boards, I'd use the carbide bits that are available. You need only a 1/8" collet. They must be used with a drill press, the...
... This is not AFAIK meant for PCB work. It's for general-purpose work. I use drill stand MB 140/S (NO 28606) + IB/E drill/grinder ( NO 28481). Drill stand...
All of my small carbide bits for PCB work have 1/8" shanks. John ... From: Branko Badrljica To: Homebrew_PCBs@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, February 03, 2012...
Thanks for the advice guys. I've seen the bits with the 1/8in shanks and my first thought was to not use them because they cost 2 or 3 times more than the...
... I have a proxxon tool, the 120 volt model. It has less runout than a dremel (and I've tried at least two of them). The main thing that bothers these...
The constant diameter bits are usually HSS, you can use them with the jacobs chuck with no problem. They bend much more before breaking but don't stand up well...
Laser printer shipping label paper, the waxy backing, makes PERFECT TT paper. Same temp and pressure profile. Pull all the paper left on the backing away...
So, if I understand your instructions, you peel the actual paper label off and use the "waxy" side of the backing for the TT? I don't understand "where you are...
Exactly the opposite experience here. I had generally good experiences with magazine covers, sometimes perfect with the paper just floating off the board, but...
Thanks, Big. Perhaps on my next project I'll try the HP paper. Donald. -- *Plain Text* email -- it's an accessibility issue () no proprietary attachments; no...
