Protocape use

Post by whatevername »

Hey all,

So, probably a nooby electronics question but what is the best way to connect projects to the protocape?
I have used breadboards and soldered to stripboards for previous projects in the past but as none of the tracks on the protocape are connected apart from the header pins, what is the best way to work with this board? I'm thinking I will just solder tracks on the reverse of the board between pins to connect my components.

Thanks for any advice :)

In general, you use the leads of your components as traces on the back of the board: http://www.electroschematics.com/5669/p ... struction/
