I want to build this circuit that I had on a breadboard.
So I placed my components on a perfboard like so:
But I had issues with components getting in the way, and not taking into account wires going over others which made it harder to measure the right length and connections that I would have to make like a T where a wire intersects and must connect to a perpendicular wire as it goes over it and continues to another connection point:
Could I get pointers on using hook wire to make connections. Issues like how to place components in ideal positions, how to measure and run hook wire for connecting points A and B but also allowing for a midwire connection point C...
I dont have that wire or the stripping tool(s) so thats great for when I get them, but i still have a lingering doubt. What Im interested in is what the pdf author calls daisy chaining on page 5/5. He says "make several sections of movable insulation". Does this stripping tool allow you to cut out insulation from the mid-section of a length of wire? How?
“Does this stripping tool allow you to cut out insulation from the mid-section of a length of wire? ”
Yes.
The tool’s has a slot in the stripping section where the insulation is cut just down the wire.
It should be noted that this slot does not damage or cut into the wire.
When the tool is held stationary and the wire is pulled, the insulation is pull off from the left side of the PDF image.
Once a section of insulation has been removed, you repeat the process, however, this time you just slide this insulation up to but not off the end of the wire.
You then repeat as necessary.
You have a wire as shown below (give me time to take the picture).
I did something similar by cutting the insulation in the middle of the wire length and then move the insulation by hand one cm to one end. This created one cm bare copper segment in the middle of my wire.
