Where can I get good breadboards ?

russbryant · 5th February 2003, 02:30 AM

I have all the parts to start building my BOSOZ but I don't know what to build it on. I don't want a PCB, at least not at this point. Should I just go to Radio Shack? Are there good quailty breadboards somewhere else?

Thanks,

Russ in Tucson

RShack would have something that would work, but I *think* that their boards are phenolic rather than glass-epoxy which is preferred.

The "standard" is Vectorboard, and you can get it from Digikey. Look on p.913 of the catalog, at the boards listed as "Prepunched Insulating boards" and choose something that you like among the "Micro-Vectorboards." If you order tomorrow they will ship tomorrow and you will have it probably Friday, latest since they're in Texas.
