I cut a medium run of these for a job I was working on I am an Electronics Engineer by trade.
These are ending up in Seismic sensors.

That's cool Bart!

Mind you help me a little about such project?

Some people I have approach for PCB routing told me that the "printing one" we're much more cheaper... would you agree?

What tool bit did you use for; drilling, path and cutout?

Did you toolpath in VC? From what CAD software the design might be... Eagle?

Is that plastic over top the board? I'm assuming you cut that too?

Earthshaking Bart
But I see you bring your work home with you. Or is it the other the other way around.

As Bart titled his post "PCB Insulation layer"

I suspect he only routed the actual insulation layer. I know people do CNC machine prototype one off PCBs but I doubt many people would use this process for production PCBs.

Brian.

Hello.
Yes as Brian pointed out i was refering to the 2mm pvc which was on top of the pcb in the photo but which is actualy the bottom. Sorry another late night post.

PACO
Printed circuts are very very rarely prototyped by routing but much easier and better way is still photo etching. which is also the same method for full production.
although saying that my polytech project was cut on a $25000 NZ$ small cnc which i hear is now defunc.
Photo etch has higher resolution and doesn't end up with burrs, swarf etc.
Typically here you are paying about 30 US$ for A4 pcb down to 5/1000 inch track to 5/1000 inch gap resolution.
I doubt anyone can do this cost effectively on thier cnc. I use protel aka altium designer for all my pcb work.

Dan Yes Work=Home=Work, thrid generation self employed, must be a genetic thing?
good thing my Misses is understanding.
