Thanks to P. Marossy, R.G. And Alex for protoboard ideas. (Your pictures ?)

[frank_p]

After seeing those simple additions to a plugboard (or breadboard) that P. Marossy, R.G. and Alex made:

Paul's versatile one (DIYguitarist)


and R.G.'s elegant one:


Alex's ecological one:


I toughed it was kinda stupid not to do so: debugging is always hard work and very frustrating when the failure comes from that connector that disconnected itself by pulling it by the guitar cord or ... or ... or ... ;

So here is my attempt at "cloning" this irresistible and simple idea :



P.S.: I must add a "Boss type" walwart plug and some holes for LEDs.

Do you guys use something like this (?),
or have ideas about adding: connectors, battery holders and etc...

Yours F.H.P.

Damn !  I knew I forgot somebodys, protoboard that I sawn...
Sorry Beavis.



Thanks Alex

I need to use my prototyping board more.

I need to use my prototyping board more. 

Well it's normal in that case :
"Hi. My Name is Paul. I am a recovered stompboxaholic."

[petemoore]

  I should have I guess, somehow, I've always found a way around it.

Here is the one I currently use.






Made from one of the rapid boxes, it's real easy to insert in a signal chain.

Hmm... good point!

Here's mine:



The box with sockets, stompswitch etc makes prototyping lots easier.

The two small circuits are a floating earth vref and a LM317 variable voltage supply - I'm playing about with submini tubes at the moment. they want 6.3 volts for the heaters.

where do you the pots on the right? I have been looking for some but have been unsure what they really are.

Richard's one (blanik):

Maintenant, il y a du pain sur la planche.

Just came across this thread.  Some of those very pots arrived in the mail this week from SmallBear.

well I was given a digi cam (by the quality of pic, you can see why it was given... nice gesture nonetheless)

anyway, here's mine

That's awesome - I'm sooooooooooooooo jealous!

[frank_p]

Extraordinaire JFX ! : et le bonjour de Montréal !

[gutsofgold]

nelson, such a good idea with those mini pots. I think thats the route I will do with mine!

[ConanB]

I'm currently redoing my board, I'll try and get pics when I've done it.

I like the use of the terminal strip! Smart!

[JFX09]

The terminal strip idea was robbed from Dano, it sparked the same sentiment when I saw how he used it (the Volt meter too, but then, i'm a sucker for everything meter...)

Rick, you shouldn't be jealous, your builds are top notch mate. Do you see those THD boards in the foreground ?

Frank: Well, If i'm going to sweat over it, might as well be pretty 
Merci MONTRÉAL  *raises hands and grins* 

now if I could only get the Rat that sits on it to work *sighs*

[Paul Marossy]

You guys have some pretty cool prototyping boards!
