The intersection of PCB and mechanical design is sort of a holy grail for engineers, and very few tools have the ability to model electronic components in physical space like KiCad.

There are a few basic steps to making a PCB. First is designing the board in Eagle or KiCad. The next step, putting the design into copper, has a lot of techniques to choose from.
