Hello Everyone,
I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and do not have the money or space for a CNC to mill my PCBs. I am wondering if there is anyone in my area that would be willing to let me mill a few small, hobby PCBs on their CNC?

Nah, I don't want to pay $50+ for small, one-off hobby boards.
Anyone out there around the bay area?
Well, if you have a EDA program capable of generating gerbers (like eagle or diptrace), there are places that will do it for less than $20, but, in general, that's about as low as you'll get no matter what.
If you are really trying to do it on the cheap, use a laser printer transfer and etch the things. That's cheap.
Chris.

check out batchpcb.com ? You get the added advantage of plated through holes...
Alternatively a small etching tank don't require much space..
