I guess this is less messy than copper prototyping (acid etching/gantry ablation/vectorboarding), but silver is more expensive, ~100x.
Also, -1 for "help start the home PCB printing revolution." Hobbyists have been making home PCBs for longer than I've been alive. It's not a revolution. Not that many people really want to do this. They could right now with copper, but the range of useful things you can build at home is limited, because having a circuit board is only 1/10th of the problem. Further, prototype services like http://oshpark.com http://oshpark.com offer high-quality services, including double-sided boards.
- joezydeco 13y agoI was really hoping there was a way to get vias on these boards, or perhaps the machine 3D-printed the substrate as well and put the vias in that way.
- orlandcst 13y agoYes, but saying that they only solve "1/10th of the problem" is a bit unfair -- what exactly qualifies as the remaining 9/10ths?
