While +/- .008 is typical (for an .062 board), its a good idea to check
the (possibly more restrictive) tolerance requirements of any edge
connectors that the board is mating into, or of any 'stradle' mount
connectors on the board.  Of course this often seems to be missing from
connector data sheets, so a call to the mfg may be required.  For
example, the AMP Mictor right-angle (stradle mount) recepticle requires
a thickness tolerance of +.008/-.005.
