File it under "bet you can't do that twice in a row".
- wumbernang 11y agoI've built commercial designs using that approach no problems at all. Most of my crap is built on PCB blanks and I have to spend some time reverse engineering it after I'm done. Picture straight off my bench: http://i.imgur.com/AyXNHfX.jpg http://i.imgur.com/AyXNHfX.jpg

- wumbernang 11y agoGoogle "jim Williams bench". I'm nothing :)
- CamperBob2 11y agoI don't follow you. Dead-bug construction over bare copper lies at the very opposite end of the spectrum from solderless breadboarding. The two techniques have nothing in common. You can use the dead-bug technique at frequencies well beyond 1 GHz with a bit of practice. The solderless breadboard, not so much.
- wumbernang 11y agoI'm not talking about construction here; design approach. I don't have any schematics for what I'm working on; they get drawn up later when it's all working. I have to reverse engineer deadbug and Manhattan stuff which is a downside which is my point.
- CamperBob2 11y agoAh, gotcha. Same here.
