Etching your own PCBs at home

Hi all
Thought I would post two videos I made on etching your own PCBs at home. The first is a tutorial on how to make a bubble etch tank (with heater). I used a faroe rocher plastic chocolate box for the tank but since had the idea of using an ant farm that is selling on amazon for £20.

The second video shows how I make PCBs using pre-coated positive photoresist fibreglass (FR4) board and how I made my light box out of an old drill case.

Hope this of help to some of you who may be thinking of doing this for the first time
