Umm, do them like any 12 year old, drill the board BEFORE etching, drill for parts and the vias, then use the holes to align your artwork or Dalo pen (you know you can use almost any waterproof felt tip pen) then after etching solder a piece of wire (or leg cut-offs) as your through-hole vias. Cheap, quick and darn reliable. :o) -Roman -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline? Don't AutoReply us! email listserv@mitvma.mit.edu with SET PICList DIGEST in the body
