PROTOboard, projectboard, perfboard ??
« on: August 30, 2022, 10:20:56 AM »

Looking for perfboard. Not sure of the terminology, but that light brown plastic stuff, with all the holes. I looked for it now, and it has one side all with copper foil. That makes sense...to solder to , and run jumpers to other stuff. But I seem to recall just the brown plastic, with all the holes....and nothing else.  Wasn't that a product once?  I'm just looking for this to cover a project box and allow the most ventilation. Yes, I know I could just drill a bunch of holes...but looking for easier, and neater!!
Any thoughts??

Google 'copper clad perfboard'. You will find plenty from which to choose.

Not expensive but I don't know about shipping. Several types to choose from.

A builder's best friend is an ample supply of electronic parts CATALOGS!   ;D  Especially from the smaller outlets.
