the printers likely have a line of bad pixels down the middle of the page,
but for circuits we can just use a good part of the print area.
i already have plenty of pyralux!

technically i should mention that the vinyl
cutter may have a teensy
problem related to its brain being out of whack. I have never messed with
it but others have fooled with it and Miloh could probably tell us more.
Worst case we order a replacement brain board from the manufacturer, or
design our own from scratch (it's just two stepper motors I believe)
the vinyl cutter came with two stands - the brand new one in the box which
is grey metal is actually for a slightly different vinyl cutter. The black
stand is for our cutter, but we might mix it with parts from the grey one
to make it better, or on wheels. We have a piece of red vinyl to start
with and we can get more vinyl once it's working.
as for the Xerox Phaser 8650, it will be great for making circuitboards
with this pyralux material. But first we will need to get the printer to
print something other than a test page! :)
also, we should find a place for it to live where we can leave it on,
since it spends a lot of ink starting and stopping.
