In this video I show the method I use to produce PCBs using photosensitive dry film

Materials (no affilition for any)

Sodium Hydroxide (Lye) - ACE hardware
Sodium Carbonate (washing soda) - ACE Hardware
Photosensitive film - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01...
UV LED lights - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08...
Transparency - https://www.amazon.com/Samsill-Transp...
Ferric Chloride etchant - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...
Copper board - https://www.ebay.com/itm/313742922377

Kicad - https://www.kicad.org/
Laminator - nothing special here as you don't need high heat - a simple Iron would do also
Laser Printer - Brother HL-2300D (ink jet wont work)
