My Exposure Box

Back to electronics: It was my desire to own a exposure box for making PCB, but time always prevented me in doing so. Now that I have my full time making things I decided to make one. I am supposed to make a wood box but my skill in carpentry is quite zero, so I went to our small stock room hoping to find a suitable ready made box. Surprisingly I spotted our old A4 Flat bed scanner which is just lying full of dust.... and here my exposure box was born.

My old WinScan A4 Tech scanner.

5 pcs. Omni T5 Ultra slim Fluorescent with Electronic Ballast - PH199.75

Positioning the lamp

I decided to put 1mm aluminum plate to level the lamp casing

I want all things easy so a 3M double adhesive was use

Fixing the wiring with the supplied plugs

the good thing is... the socket are in both end of the fluorescent holder

Powering up

The finish box


Next will be the Pic base timer
