where can i make custom PCB?
i prefer somewhere that i can make only one for testing
and not mass produced,
and i also prefer one that provide online service,
im not always available to go Jalan Pasar..

you can make one for your self....

yeah that's possible but the UV exposure box costs like rm3k
if you know anyone that's selling them cheap do tell me

use etching method

yeah i know about etching, i think that is used to remove the copper
but i need a way to transfer the toner design on the board before i remove it,
if not it would just be an empty board, that's what the UV box is for...

Use a laser printer to print the carbon onto a glossy paper.
Then Iron the carbon onto the board.
Use etching solution and there is your DIY PCB.

Tried it back in my university days, work wonders.

iron eh, i didn't know that,
would the glossy paper burn or melt?

read the link provided by him...

It might burn a little. One more tips, use black marker to do some "touch up" if some lines are missing (after soaking and before etching).

You might wanna experiment a few times to get a first good working board. Happy DIY-ing.

print the circuit in reverse order(print black outside circuit on plastic cover) and go to the electronic shop. they can do it for u for a small fee.

are you in university?
