PCB Traces in Eagle

[suryabeep]

Hi everyone,
I've been designing my own pcbs in Eagle and have been using 0.016 inch traces so far. However, a circuit I'm building is going to get pretty tight for the box size I want, so is it ok to use 0.006 inch traces? It's what the eagle autorouter uses automatically, so bonus: less work.
Thanks!

Probably. You need to check what the PCB fabricator requires as minimum trace width. It's usually listed on their website, and often you can download a DRC file for eagle to check your design against their requirements.

Cool, thanks!
