Re: gEDA-user: Milling channels in a PCB?

Use a layer.  Note that fab shops have limited sizes for milling
tools; usually 3/32, 1/16, and 1/32 inch (93, 62, and 31 mil).
Anyway, draw in the layer where you want milled, and when you send it
to the fab shop, TALK to them and explain what you want.  Also put it
in the README.  They'll program their mill-route machines to do what
you want.

Yup.
