[Lab] PCB Etching with the Laser Cutter

[Darcy Whyte]

Yeah, Dave's board is pretty seggsy...

Really makes me want to try milling one...

I think the whole point of doing a board by hand is to save time on project
duration so probably just use larger components...

I've got a few things in the queue so as soon as I come up with a circuit
to make I'm going to try...
