All of the circuit boards and robots in this book have been built and tested to ensure that they function as described. 10-inch on centers) using point-to-point wiring if you wish. I don’t recommend this method because one misplaced or omitted wire can cause hours of frustration. The easiest way to produce quality PCBs is by using the positive photo fabrication process. To fabricate the PCBs for each robot project, photocopy the PCB artwork onto a transparency. Make sure that the photocopy is the exact size of the original.

Do not remove the remaining resist protecting your circuit or image, as it protects the copper from oxidation. If you require it to be removed, use a solvent cleaner. 3 shows an etched board ready for drilling. 5. Drilling and parts placement—Use a 1/32-inch drill bit to drill all the component holes on the PCB. Drill the holes for larger components with a 3/64-inch bit where indicated. 3 An etched board ready for drilling. time. 4, rather than a hand drill, when working with circuit boards. This is to ensure that the holes are drilled straight and accurately.
