What size would be considered large in this instance?
The PCB I'm trying to make is 4.7" X 5.4" between the widest
pins/traces (5.1" X 5.65" board outline), with about 90 components
(about 250 pins) all through hole. I'm putting it on a 6" X 9"
board, single sided except some stitching.
Do you think I would be running into shrinkage issues with these
dimensions?
