Homebrew PCBs

Thanks John
I am aware of the "fill" but as I am an eagle rookie i have not found 
the way to display fill on the screen.
I tend to do a lot of rectangles - ends up looking like an SMD board
I figure for the slow speed stuff I do tieing rectangles to either 
rail is ok.

I touch up and enhance large areas with shellac(sic?) mixed a little 
thicker.
