Hi All,
Wonder if I can pull some of that knowledge from you. I have myself a Marchant Dice A3 machine and one of my projects I shall be undertaking is some PCB work. I have previously been using the UV and Acid approach but it's lengthy and not clean.
I keep seeing some PCB bits on eBay which are incredibly cheap and look like Vs' on the end of shank.
Is shank the right name?
So, are they any good for light work?
Am I better off using an end mill or ball nose?
Any other suggestions?
I'm not after anything for really small work however if I can go smaller then I can rethink and improve the design if I see fit.
Check out my examples below which show the kind of work I am thinking of doing. This is my NanoLight V3 Project for illuminating Reef Tanks.
Thanks for your time.
James
