PCB`S is it possible to scan in a simple one sided board from black and white paper print out and with a suitable programme machine with mack3. I do not want to design the board in eagle etc.

Hi Hollydog,
Yes, it is pretty easy to do it this way provided you can accept 'isolation routing' for the finished PCB.
Rather than explain the whole process here, this is a link to the way I have done it
http://www.cooperman.talktalk.net/files/15.htm
If you need to remove all, or just some of the unwanted copper then a program such as CopperCAM could produce the toolpath but this route produces a large GCode file with even larger machining times involved.

Many thanks Tweakie best site I have found for a long time. I have built a Gantry machine working area 18" x 24" have it engraving and making cogs.
Many thanks for your help.
