HOW TO - Turn your EAGLE schematic into a PCB (Printed circuit boards)

Westfw writes - "In a previous Instructable, I provided an intro to schematic entry using CadSoft's EAGLE editor.
In this instructable, we'll make a printed circuit board from that schematic. I guess I should say that we'll make a PCB DESIGN; making the physical board is a different task, and there are a lot of tutorials on the net (and even some instructables) on making the board after you have the design."

I've been meaning to learn to do this in Eagle. I've made a lot of PCBs at home but for most of my projects it's easier to just use perfboard.

Commercial production is so cheap now for a few boards it's really looking tempting, it's just a matter of eagle's learning curve.
