PCB milling, also know as mechanical etching, is the fastest, cleanest, high-performance and economical PCB prototyping process today.
FlatCAM lets you take your designs to a CNC router. You can open Gerber, Excellon or G-code, edit it or create from scatch, and output G-Code. Isolation routing is one of many tasks that FlatCAM is perfect for. It's is open source, written in Python and runs smoothly on most platforms. Check out the features list .
FlatCAM is nicely documented, including the manual and tutorials. See the following to get started:
