I make my own eyelet boards by looking at various layout diagrams and sort of guessing the size of the board in relation to the proportions of the chassis and then guessing the proportional spacing of the eyelets that is required to fit the components. No big mystery to it really. All it takes is a bit of slap-dash artistic flair. However, if you need more structure/guidance in your design process, there are some layout dimensions for various AX84 amps on their site .Building a better world (one tube amp at a time)

The places for dimensions and layout are TurretBoards.com, Ceriatone.com and the Fender Field Guide.
You'll have to figure out the actual drill pattern by hand (or with a drawing program).
The easiest way may be to get the first one from TB.com
I wouldn''t be surprised if one of the begineer books has the layout in it.See the birth of a 2-watt tube guitar amp - the "Dyno Tweed"

I like to just draw on graph paper. Locate the eyelets on 1/10 inch centers and sketch the components in. Then use a scribe to mark hole centers thru the graph paper into the board and drill.WARNING! Musical Instrument amplifiers contain lethal voltages and can retain them even when unplugged. Refer service to qualified personnel.

Here's Ted Weber's page for board design. He makes it simple for you. You can even select the type of terminals (posts or eyelets).
