0.5mm pitch is no probem with TT, using a 600dpi printer.
But it's best to make the pads slightly narrower than you'd usually make
them, since the toner spreads a little.
How much depends, best experiment.
Now what is a problem on homebrew boards is getting signals to and fro,
without real vias...
I'd much prefer if they didn't make them parts so small, but what can you
do?
