So my latest electronics project worked great, and it looked great
(IMHO) on the top side of the perfboard, but was a bit of a mess on
the bottom (wiring) side which was a mix of bent leads and hookup wire
used to make the necessary connections.  As a result I started to
think about moving up to photoresist PCB etching.  But it occurs to me
that the process would be significantly simpler if I did not need to
drill the through holes.  I am curious to know if anyone knows of a
source for copper clad perfboard (i.e., not just pads around the
holes, but completely plated on one side).  With a bit of care with
registration, it seems one could etch the traces on such perfboard and
then the holes would be already be there!

Does anyone know where copper clad perfboard could be obtained?  Or is
that a fundamentally dumb idea?
