Basics
- This page goes over the use of a D3D printer/3 axis mechanism, and a Pen Holder Toolhead to make a mask for PCB Etching
- This is simpler to use than the CNC Circuit Mill and also requires less rigidity (only One Z axis, etc)

- Appears reliable - [1]
- plotting PCB on Houston Instruments 1117 pen plotter with Edding 404 marker (actually it is NOT recommended marker - use some varnish marker - like 792 edding ... or refill 404 with varnish (warning - varnish will destroy plastic whithin some time so keep it in some glass or metal box) - [2]
- Simple gutterpunk way - [3]
- Etching into all-covered board - [4]
