Closeup on the first tests with the pulsar toner transfer paper and my new GBC H212 laminator. I'm not quite happy with it. The lines + spacing are 0.25mm and I had to run it through the laminator about 15 times. I'm starting to doubt whether toner transfer is such a big saver of time/work compared to the usual photographic transfer. OK more chemicals involved, but NaOH doesn't stink and is much cheaper than a laminator and with the right UV box, it's painless and gives 100% result.

The first test of toner transfer with my new laminator - hating it already :-( Sounded much easier on the websites I checked. Maybe I'll buy a UV box for photographic transfer _again_ ... too bad I sold my old one some time ago :-( Anybody want a laminator ? (I don't pay for shipping of course). Maybe this is just jocular

pulsarprofx toner transfer test. lack of pressure. details are ok, but toner does not stick properly to aluminum board.

pulsarprofx toner transfer test. using pulsar's suggested method using a piece of round wood to increase pressure of the iron. sticks like mad, cannot be scratched away but the details are gone. all smudged.

my first test of the toner-transfer method using the pulsarprofx paper and a simple clothes iron.

no diffusor, so each mini-led is clearly visible at close distances

my first arduino project.

put into a nice box :-)

all the mechanics hooked up to the arduino board for testing. this is a minor part of my PhD project, my boss doesn't know about that yet though :-)

it's alive !
