[Disassembling a kit]
Un-etching a board is a challenge I would not
accept.
Did/do US kits come with unetched boards, then? All the kits I've got in
the UK come with pre-etched (and normally drilled, although I have had to
drill the board myself for a couple of kits) PCBs.
No, unetching a board is going to be impossible. The only hope is to get
a blank piece of copper-clad of the right size. Hardly original.
Actually, some kits did come with a blank piece of copper-clad of
somewhere close to the right size. My ex-co-husband did a couple
of them back in the 70s. I'd rather do wire-wrap myself.
