One of the tricks we use in our lab for quickies is to go to Radio Shack
and buy a cheap kit. You can do a small board in a half an hour. As to
the tough part (drilling) we simply take a piece of .1 spacing perf board
and tape it over the target board. You drill through this as a template
with a dremil tool or a drill press which then keeps the hole spacing
correct.  Its sometimes easier to drill before you put the trace resist on.

Hope this helps.  It looks crude on the tape size, but great on the
component side and sure saves $$ and days when you need the next step
over a proto board.
