This Week on the Breadboard: The Quicklime Girl

Do you have a ribbon cable with females ends to that socket soldered to the ppcb switch daughterboard? Looks like it’d be an excellent way to swap out circuits with the same drill pattern. Mind posting a pic of the switch? Does your dc jack have plugs as well?

Like this. Though this is a dual relay obviously. Only downside is the length of the cable. I need to find something shorter..

those kilometer-long cables might invite crosstalk.

@szukalski Lol ya think! That would make popping in the foot switch and dc jack a breeze! For example I just built a 3 pot build that isn’t gonna get any use and I’m building another with the same layout I could just unsnap that old project out and desolder the jacks and I’d have a quick and ready enclosure for my new project. Hopefully it won’t get scrapped like the other.
