Re: Circuit Board Programs-Milling boards

2002-08-19 by george_barr

There is a soon to be released PCB Isolator called DeskPCB by 
www.deskam.com.  I emailed them asking for a PCB Isolator and they 
emailed me the demo of DeskPCB.  I found that the round circular pads 
that the program outlined is not entirely circular but similar to a 
10 or so sided circle with sides.  This might affect the actual PCB 
circuit board results.  I am still new to this so cannot give anyone 
more info.  You or anyone else should check it out and possibly 
provide some input.  Try emailing them for a free demo copy.  I am 
considering using ISOPro since it is what the real expensive PCB 
mills use.

Thanks,
