I might give it a shot.  Hmmm, Mark and I are both in Columbus.

Anyway, Mark:  How did you do the PCB layout?  Please say Easytrax.  If
not, can you also provide an Excellon drill file?

What I would like is to have enough of the boards layed out to fill a 6" by
6" piece of material.  I can drill them with my CNC drill machine and get a
negative for $10.  One at a time would be impractical.

If you just have artwork, it wouldn't be any big deal to lay it out
myself.
