Homebrew PCBs

Hi All
 
> When I was a kid I started out drawing PCBs by hand with graph paper.  No 
way I would go back to that now!

I still use that method having got used to it over the years on both small  
and large boards and having developed a habit of drawing the circuit  
diagram in a logical manner the layout mostly falls out from that. Also I do not  
like leaving critical RF layouts to an auto-router.
 
Diptrace does have a facility for laying out PCBs manually when viewed from 
 the solder side so that aligns nicely with the graph paper method that I 
am used  to.
 
Regards

Bob
