Jesse, I checked this one out...but it didn't appear to me you could get a solder mask...which for soldering those tiny TQFP pins by hand would really be important. Were you able to get a SM on your protos with these folks?

I went with barebonespcb.com for a panelized design, 4 different circuits, came out great. Their website doesn't gave any specifics about drill density etc. etc. I had 11 drill sizes and didn't do the high density drill for snap apart (used a bandsaw and tin snips). They are now my official cheap protos place. Each time I do something for a client I plan to put a few tssop-to-dip layouts and whatnot on for stocking...
