Default LED and PCBs

I've used ExpressPCB where you layout your printed circuit on on your
computer (easy to use free software download) send it to them over the
internet, and for $63 get three two sided circuit boards with plated thru
holes.

For comparison, All Electronics (www.allelectronics.com) will sell you
a 6x12" piece of copper clad circuit board for five bucks. That's
enough to do a dozen nav lights. It's single-sided but that's all that
is needed for such a simple circuit.

They will also sell you the etchant ($4). And Tinnit (if you wanna use
it).

Bottom Line: If you spend more than a buck per board you simply don't
understand the motivation behind Flying on the Cheap, which is the fact
that the median income in the United States is less than thirty grand a
year.
