I new milled circuit. Helping out a guy I met on the web that wanted a circuit milled. This is just a test to see if I can do the SMD pads. With the Widgetmaster and Wolfgang ... yep :) The smallest pads are .254mm wide. This is right off the mill with no "cleaning" of the whiskers of copper. I'm impressed.

I know, I know ... It's been a long time since my last update. However I wanted to share this one. I was contacted by my alma mater to help them mount a SMD hall effect device. Rather than ask me what would be best, they already ordered the part. It's unbelievably small. How small, 1.1mm square!
Yeah, have a look at what I milled out:
Even closer:
The whole board is about 1.5 inches. There are 2 surface mount capacitors in the bottom right. They are size 805 for those that care :D
I'll update when I actually mount the switch and test it. This is a BGA device (4 balls) ... I've never soldered a BGA but plan to use my hot air station. My other option is to buy a skillet from goodwill and do a reflow.
