Homebrew PCBs

Just finished my first TT board with dip trace.

Problem I have is its really small pads on things like TO92 etc.

I dont think I'd get a drill bit small enough in me black'n'decker!

Is there a simple way to enlarge these or do i need to add a larg pad
over every hole etc

use the pointer tool, right click on the pad and adjust the pad properties. If
you select "all like pads" then you can do all the like pads on the PCB at the
same time.

Cheers,

With the Pulsonix software I use I can simply change the pad parameters in 
the Technology, modifying all pads of that type simultaneously. Perhaps you 
have a similar facility. Or, you might be able to change the footprint and 
reload it.
