I don't know, but from I've read of this message I don't think that
lamination is really required. Imaging would be the bigger trouble.

Guy, You may get more answers if you can get a bit more details...
      Just one layer or more?
      What kind of finish?
      Hole size and precision of positioning required?

We don't build fabs here anymore. But from a purchasing point of view, the
more details you give here, the better your chances of finding a solution.

Some Mass Laminatin set ups could handle this size in lamination.  But that
is bigger than the largest exposure unit I've ever seen.  The largest Scanex
exposure unit I remember was 36" x 72".  You still need a drill that big,
never heard of one of those?

Hey Guy,

I can't say I've every seen or heard of an exposure unit that large or a lam
press if it's multilayer that it could fit in.  (You'd need a crane for the
caul plates.)

It must be Friday.

Anybody know where we can get quotes on 4 by 8 boards. Yes, four foot by
eight foot boards. We do not need through hole plating but we do need images
on both sides, oh yeah and thin 1mm or so.
