I've made prototype ( and permanent) boards out of double sided PC with
orthogonal saw cuts through the top layer to create pads. You have to
drill and loop through the bottom layer for ground pads.

Interesting as I have about ten life times' supply of double sided, and
only a small amount of single sided.

(When the Kode company shut down in Calne, the then Devizes radio
club was invited to bring a lorry and take away as much as they could.)

DOuble sided circuit board was easy to get here, at ham fests and at the
local "surplus" outlet. I seem to recall double sided was more common
than single sided, so I guess it wasn't a regional thing.
