Making PCBs this way is very slow, you know?

IME it is better to use a professional fabricator - http://www.kikipcb.com/

Unless you are making rather crude and large PCBs it's a tough job for a mill to do a good job. My PCBs have tracks only 0.2mm wide and similar spacing, that is a difficult ask for an affordable mill.

I use a combination of Eagle to do the design work and the pcb-gcode ulp to generate the necessary gcode files. For the small one off type of thing that I do as a hobbyist, this works fine.
The ulp can be found either on the Eagle site or there is a yahoo group dedicated to it.

It looks like those boards might easily be handled by Eagle Lite (no cost for a hobbist) and the ulp is also no cost.
Might be a winner setup for you.

So it is free card for eagle lite?, Would be fun to try cnc , but no one has tips on a cnc router with good price and easy to use!
