&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Step by step ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Compose film and copper board ===&lt;br /&gt;
* The film is folding in between of two cover film, remove one side first&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt; Get the film from [http://www.electrodragon.com/?product=photoresist-film-sheets-photo-etched-pe-pcb here].&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Remove film.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
* Place the film on [http://www.electrodragon.com/?product=copper-clad-boards-for-diy-pcb-fr4-150mm-x-200mm-single-sided copper board], clean the copper board with sand paper beforehand, so it's easy to stick on it, make sure the film is flat, and without bubble.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Copper board.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
* Also possible to use an heat transfer machine to place the film like this&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Heat_transfer.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Place the film.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
* Or heat the film up with iron, not too hot, so the film is fixed on top of copper plate.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
=== Printing ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Print Circuit board with photo film.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Printing.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
=== Exposure and developing ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Exposure the circuit onto copper board which are already covered by film. Depends what kind of light you use, time is varying from 1 mins to 30 mins.For this UV light, you only need 1-2 mins.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Exposure.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
* Developing, remove the another layer of film, leave it in developing liquid which is pre-mixed with water by 1:00.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Developing1.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
=== Etch ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Etch. Etch solution [http://www.electrodragon.com/?product=pcb-copper-clad-board-etch-solution-instead-of-hydrogen-peroxide-h2o2 here].&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Developing 2.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
=== Extra Film Remove ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Removing the rest film by film remover liquid pre-mixed.&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Removing.jpg]]&lt;br /&gt;
And now it done.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
