Pot Carriers for Breadboards

[Chuck D. Bones]

I made some of these from leftover parts.



The terminal blocks are mounted on the copper side of the board, so I used jumpers to tether them. I suppose some epoxy would have worked too.

The double-row headers make for a secure mechanical connection to the proto-board.

Now make one for a dual-pot.

Sweet looking toy build you got there

 

[Chuck D. Bones]

By adding three short jumper wires, and maybe some lead bending, that one should accommodate a dual pot. Sometimes we gotta improvise.

I thought Frank Zappa was the Mother of Invention.

Frank Zappa is god, unlike Crapton.

¿Que?

 

[mckillacuddy]

Can I bother y’all for some specs on these terminals? There’s like 14 million at Mouser and I don’t even know where to start

 

[Chuck D. Bones]

The ones in this BOM would work.
