A PCB that constructs circuit traces, vias, and connection pads by filling recessed areas, grooves, holes, and/or counter bores with conductive material. The recessed areas are filled with conductive ink or plating solutions by a number of methods. Capillary action aids in the filling of the recessed areas. Pressure, vacuum and or gravity can aid the filling. Layers of the PCB or similar type devices can be bonded together both mechanically and electrically to accomplish 3D connections of circuits. Ground and power plane durability and conductivity is enhanced by the inclusion of small grooves over the conductive plane.
