Too much of a short cut for me. What about boards with steel layers? =
They=92re not insulators, but they also don=92t fit your plated-on =
model. Nor, really, do soldermask and so-called =93silk=94.

Why not actually use =93layer=94 with its meaning in English? Is that =
really so hard? As for =93drawing layers=94, let me suggest that =
=93pattern sets=94 is a much clearer, more correct term.
