Hi Tom We have sheets of Cooper that goes in the vinyl cutter. To be honest, I have not used it to create circuit boards, but I have just used it first time to make the circular contacts for my POV project. My guess you can cut out the copper sheet then stick that on a blank board which then the holes can be drilled out with a dremel if you do not have access to Modela. Again, I have not used it so have no experience, but there are people at the tech center that such knowledge.
I see people making circuit boards directly with the Modela as we have blank cooper laid PCBs that will eliminate the steps of using a vinyl cutter. But as you can imagine, each tool has it own advantages and disadvantages depending on the need. YES the Southend Technology FABLAB is directly funded by MIT and I believe was the first which is now replicated across the country and world Ming
