[dorkbotpdx-blabber] Buying the stuff to make PCBs..

[Mr.T]

Stuff that works for me:

Toner Transfer Paper:

Green TRF:

Ferric Chloride or Ammonium Persulphate :
go to Norvac

I _really_ like using a laminator like the GBC H110 from office depot
or you can use a hobby iron likke Don does.

as far as pcb material goes look on Ebay  for "FR4" and you can find some 
super cheap stuff.
