I cut the sides a little overside, then line them up using a strong
light source.  When they're aligned, I put a few staples in one end,
verify I didn't tweak the alignment, and then staple the other end.
Then I slide the board into the resulting sleeve.  If you let it find
its natural shape, the alignment is very good.  Considering the puny
annular rings around components like resistors in Eagle, it had to be!
