Over on An Absolute Beginners Guide To Designing PCBs using Easy EDA – Make PCB From A Schematic I learned about How to Share Projects in PCBWay Community. Seems like a good service to me, haven’t used it yet but do intend to check it out.
Also variously known as “stripboard” and “veroboard” I got myself some of this TZT 10PCS DIY 2.5×6.4 2.5*6.4CM Prototype Paper PCB Universal Experiment Matrix Circuit Board Single Row Continuous Hole 25x64mm. AU$4.71 for 10 pieces, delivered. The boards are fairly small, 25x64mm.
And also some of this: diymore 5PCS/Lot 50X100mm 2-3-5 Joint Universal PCB Boards Single Side Copper Prototype Print Circuit Boards Breadboard. AU$4.28 for 5 pieces, delivered. These are a little larger at 50x100mm.
I still haven’t found exactly what I’m looking for when it comes to stripboard, gonna keep my eye peeled. This is what I have so far:
This was good: Techniques and Strategies for Building Electronic Circuits.
Here’s a picture of my new PCB Circuit Board Holder in use holding a v1.0 Xbox motherboard:
Pretty nifty!
So in my travels recently I discovered JLCPCB. They can make custom circuit boards and their prices seem very affordable. I don’t know what other companies might be out there offering similar services but I don’t think I’ll need to look further…
Update: 2021-09-24 jj5 – also check out the service from Seeed Studio. Thanks to my mate Raz for the suggestion.
