 pcb
Polychlorinated biphenyls (or PCBs) are a group of colorless oils which were used extensively during the 50's, 60's and 70's in applications requiring highly stable oils possessing low conductivity and flammability properties.
PCBs were also used in vacuum pumps, adhesives as hydraulic fluids, plasticizers, fire retardants, wax extenders, de-dusting agents, pesticide extenders, inks, lubricants, cutting oils, and in carbonless reproducing paper.
PCBs and PCB containing articles are regulated by the EPA under the Toxic Substance Control Act (TSCA) and are not regulated as a hazardous waste.

 PCB Layout - Printed Circuit Board Layout and Design   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The connections on the PCB should be identical to the circuit diagram, but while the circuit diagram is arranged to be readable, the PCB layout is arranged to be functional, so there is rarely any visible correlation between the circuit and the layout.
A PCB will usually have mounting holes and may possibly have cutouts, by cutting an actual size checkplot and placing it in the enclosure, you can see how it will be positioned in relation to other parts.
Unless the whole PCB is gold plated before etching, this technique is limited in its application, normally, to pads on the edge of a PCB, as an electrolytic plating bar must be attached to the pads, and then removed part way through the PCB manufacturing process.
