Thanks for the demo of liquid tin, this makes the board look superb and is clearly quite simple to use.

Excellent video! The copper etching at the end was quite compelling. Hydrogen Peroxide sold for use in beauty salons is graded 10,20,30, and 40V. 40V is the strongest, and is equivalent to 12% hydrogen peroxide; 10V is 3%, 20V is 6%, 30V is 9%. I suspect your bottle, marked 30, is 30V, or 9% hydrogen peroxide. For those having difficulty finding concentrated hydrogen peroxide: the easiest choice is probably to buy some cheap 3% hydrogen peroxide at Wal-Mart, and concentrate it through boiling it off. The water boils at 100 C, but hydrogen peroxide boils at 150 C; so just bring it to a bare simmer on the stove, and let the water evaporate out. In this fashion, you can turn a 32 ounce bottle of 3% hydrogen peroxide into 8 ounces of 12% hydrogen peroxide. For reasons that are unclear, 40V clear developer (12% hydrogen peroxide) is stupidly expensive in Canada. You can easily drop $40 - $80 on a small quantity. Boiling it down is probably the most practical approach. >Charlie

I etch boards all the time using 50% muriatic acid and 50% hydrogen peroxide. I warm the mixture up before putting the boards in. The etching process is absolutely complete within 3 to 3 and 1/2 minutes.

What’s the best way to cleanly cut the board? The tin snips tend to deform it a little in my experience
@upgrdman
3 жыл бұрын
Tin snips has worked out best for me. You could cut it with a Dremel and cutting disk, but that makes a bigger mess and can be difficult to keep straight. If you cut the board before soldering things to it, it doesn't matter if it bends a little. (Just bend it back.)

@@dd884e5d8a I use a CNC milling machine to cut (and drill). That's the easiest, but another way is to use a sharp razor style (or acrylic) knife to score the PCB multiple times and then snap of along a straight edge. That will give you a clean edge compared to the tin snips method. Definitely want to avoid cutting with dremel type tool, which will kick up too much fiberglass dust as well as being very hard to make a straight cut. Of course if your raw board size is too close to the size of your finished PCB it will be more difficult to use the score and snap approach.

BTW your Amazon Hydrogen peroxide link is broken. It looks like either Amazon or their logistics options have restricted the transportation of higher concentrations of hydrogen peroxide. I didn't see anything official from them, but it's kinda implied by the sellers. When searching ""Hydrogen Peroxide 35%"" several sellers have listings stating that they are selling Hydrogen Peroxide 35% that was intentionally diluted to 12% 'for faster shipping.' The only listing I found on Amazon for 35% is $180 bucks. If I'm not mistaken, 12% would take about 2 to 3 times longer to etch with a 1:12 ratio of Sodium Hydroxide to a 12% concentration of Hydrogen Peroxide. I just wish there was a chemical combo that could be sourced locally at big box home improvement stores. BTW, I asked nurdrage about a way to make a cheap tin plating solution awhile back. They made a video about how to make your own solution using silver polish and other household chemicals as a cheap DIY replacement.

Its the same phonetic dysfunction as makes Americans (who don't speak proper English) pronounce 'mirror' using some variation of murh. There might be a psychological link to the reasons why America irrationally still uses the old imperial system of measurement, despite allegedly being a metric country.

@@Captain_Nemo-y7qif you work with electronics and with home made pcb, you'll know that "imperial system" is the pitch used on every electronic chip, in fact the normal pitch between two pins of any IC is 2,54 mm, which is 1/10 of an inch. Crazy if you want, but so it is. Probably the very first ICs were built in United States, and all machines made to drill, insert, soldering those ICs can't be changed now, nor all the Integrated Circuits in use. I'm from Europe, and we use millimeters. We are not familiar with inches, and we don't love them at all. But English and American people do use inches from centuries, and - equally - they don't love millimeters at all. Who is right ? We have to accept difference from us ... Also we have hydraulics and gas pipes all in inches, they probably came from England than from America ... more far than 1492, when America was discovered ...
