I love Collin's Mannerisms and personality. Makes me feel welcomed.

Thanks for doing this, Collin. A coworker recommended I check this process out instead of soldering onto prototype boards, and this video has me excited to do it. You make it look much easier -- and fun -- than I expected. Rock on!

Excellent summary of one layer PWB etching! We are having a lab this week and had multiple lectures about this, along with extensive instructions, but this video really connected the dots. Thank you :)

Just watched this with my 9 year old son and we were both inspired! So cool! We are going to give it a go! Thanks my man, we loved this; beautifully explained with passion, care and simplicity. Many thanks for sharing! My son wants to give you this; 👍 Great work Colin! You have two new fans....

this guy is my spirit animal

...and I thought it was some really drawn out process to do this! You made it look easy...thank you!

Your laid back approach is AWESOME. Your not stressed and simple direct explanation is just what newbies need. Your system is exactly how I make my boards and mine come out excellent every time. I skimp and use ferric chloride hexahydrate and caustic soda but I have been doing it for years and know the measurements. Also an etch tank with a fish tank bubbler and heater bring the etch time to under 8 minutes depending on copper thickness. Dry Film Solder mask is cheap and easy with a laminator.

You are awesome! Look at the perfectly centered blueprint. Highly developed sense of art. Also, I like that you cut the unnecessary frames off getting to the point without wasting time. One of the best KZreadrs.

This is a very interesting piece. Thanks for posting this. I was always wondering how I can bypass the hassle of making my own but you seriously simplified the whole process. Thank you.

So far I've enjoyed all the video's that I have viewed on this channel. I also am one of those that is almost petrified by the thought of making my own circuit boards. Thanks for giving me the inspiration too give it a try.

I came here again just to give a thumbs up...

you demonstrated great ! The precision, precaution and the way you showed off was brilliant. Thanks a lot.

I have been making pcb s for years. I made a rocker for the solutions, uv light box and using a Dremel drill on a flex cable.

i made my first one today

Thank God for you. I have been trying to find a simple way of doing PCB's.....all seemed too hard, ...........and you've demonstrated a very easy solution. Thank you.

"This board has got heart". Colin, you are the man. I love your uber geek style, great work man!!!!

"(...) it's got heart! Something that those boards don't!" Ahahahahah You're the best! : D

in 2014 electre-engeniering school in Požega, Croatia we draw the whole pcb with a permanent marker lol

Having worked as an electronics engineer where our PCBs were made on a production line, I'm keen to try this home method. Having watched many videos with people using laminators, I'm fairly sure this is going be a more sensible method.

An excellent tutorial. One suggestion: the very thin drill bits that I use -- 0.04" -- can easily "dance" away from the hole that are intended to be drilled, particularly on this very hard phenolic board. To limit this, I use a center punch in order to create a very shallow divot on the hole as a wide to guide the drill bit during early moments of drilling.
