    What are those 10-block LEDs called? I tried to order but they did not appear…

  2. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Rowan Ballinger says:

    Think your a bit fussy I thought the bread board was very neat and tidy

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Andy Web says:

    can you control things on a breadboard via PC rather than having to use an Arduino or Raspberry Pi?

    Whose moronic idea was it to have the power/ground bus bars be non continuous anyway? That guy deserves a swift kick to the crotch.

    so Boring. not everyone is ben eater….

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bernd Eckenfels says:

    Always wondered why breadboards like that have gaps in the power rails

    sir please give complete circuit digram

    Clearly, solderless breadboards and ICs were not designed for people with OCD.

    @Julian Ilett I would have made a GND bus with male header pins. By soldering a long wire connecting all the pins.

    What value potentiometer and capacitor did you use for the 555 timer?

    I’m glad I’m not the only one that spends a lot of time with how a circuit lays out and looks on a breadboard. Very important in troubleshooting also. Modern jumper wires are just awful.

    Julian, if you think your's looks bad you would be horrified at mine. They often look like someone has spilt a bowl of coloured spaghetti on the breadboard.

    You need to put a comma in between every eight bits 😉

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars edgeeffect says:

    I think it looks really cool at the moment. Those "jumping over the top of the chips" look really groovy.
    But, yeah, you're screwed with those SIL packs.

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars 10100rsn says:

    Yeah, first world problems…

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hyperfluff says:

    if you didnt found a solution right now just take a male pin header with 40 pins and take a wire on which you solder all 40 pins to short them out
