Bill, I think you are missing the point. There is no reason to pay for gerber converions and whatever. You just draw your schematic, then pcb board using...

Everything I do here is about 90% SMT. I just hand solder everything. I have escaped having to use high density chips so far (meaning legs per mm). You...
My two cents. I am an Engineer who uses ExpressPCB for home projects. At work we use production board houses for our prototypes. We don't get stencils made for...
It's not hard to solder together one SMT board with 0805 components and some so16 chips. If you're building a small lot or something with 0402's and 32 or 50...
Yes, I've hand soldered some and do small batches of high density stuff. The stencil makes life MUCH easier, but at a pretty hefty price the way things are...
