Things I can think of to hamper my work being ripped off...
1. Reflowing 1206 components upside down (won't stop 'em, but at least it'll give them some heartache!)
2. Removing ID marks from ICs (but how to do this quickly?)
3. Spraying the post populated board with some form of masking 'opaque' spray (but what?)
4. Lastly, encapsulating in rock hard black epoxy (a bit unreversible....but the sum total of the components is cheap & therefore if one comes back for repair...simply replace with a new one)
Any other top tips?
