Homebrew PCBs

Well, not really. Right now you cut the PCB material to size then 
transfer & etch.  

Rather, you have your "leading" or "reference" edge cut straight and 
you mark the center point on that edge.  You then print one side, 
flip, print opposite side.  Now the artwork is square to that same 
edge and aligned from face to face.

Etch the board, then trim the rest to size.

I believe that will work out okay.
