Fancy Glueing Your Circuit

[craig008]

i was flicking through web pages just eariler when i found this, thought you all might be interested, mayber easier than soldering

Interesting- looks a bit messy though. You can get conductive silver "pens" for PCB repair but these are expensvie and I have not had brilliant results with them. I did read about some university project where they were printing circuits using silver impregnated ink with a modified inkjet printer.

Many thanks for the lead, grapes.

When I first read the Instructable, I was just amazed. Then I started wondering what I'd use that goop for. It's a solution looking for a problem. But I've got to admit that it's a pretty fancy solution.

Good info. I've bookmarked it for future reference.

"...if you get stuck for PCB" .... conductive glue... nice pun.
Well at last he used more upper case letters than demonpag.

Conductive glue has been around for ages. I assume that stuff is home-made? The epoxy stuff has superior spec but, boy, it's expensive.

Now if grapes could invent a tough conductive solderable ink then we could screen-print pcbs... or has it already been done?

thanks for the pun it wasnt intentional, and just for the record i did not invent it, i just found the site.

dippy tou hit on the reason for the home stuff the stuff you buy is way too expensive - the exact reason why the person made it.

as for the fading standby light that was picaxe based and thought you may be interested - a project for later maybe
