I got some boards back from commercial mfg. These are the first mfg boards I've dealt with.
The component holes for everything, resistors, sockets, etc are quite tight, to the point where one must be careful not to bend a lead when putting it in.
Some holes have "burrs" in them, I don't know if it's an actual drilling burr underneath it or a protrusion purely from the plating process. The lead wires cannot push it aside, I found a staple leg can get them out of the way.
Is it normal for the holes to be this tight? Are the burrs a common problem? Or is this really poor mfg?
