Just remember to use a mirror image when you apply it to the copper board to etch!

I copied my layout from general guitar gadgets. This is what theirs looks like:

how can I tell which way the PCB is transfered.

BTW: I'm still not 100% sure on this "IP" issue so if posting that pic is wrong just say so.

Just put a link to the site instead of the pic, makes everybody happy.

just make sure those traces and pads are big enough for soldering... its a PITA when they aren't. :mad:

I remember when I used to make PCBs at school... They don't look cool unless all the tracks are at right angles! :mad:
