[sdiy] Protoboard / Stripboard

[Scott Gravenhorst]

Hey List:

I'm putting together a life-time buy list of parts (I love Pb and
through-hole) and I'm looking for sources of inexpensive prototyping
stripboard.  The kind I use is etched on one side with 4 or 5 hole
connected strips per IC pin and rail buses that are laid out in a way
similar to solderless breadboards.  I'd like to buy this stuff now before
it becomes too scarce.  I've looked at All Electronics, but they have only
pad per hole and Euroboards which aren't optimal (the pin strip lands only
have 3 holes, and one hole is under the IC, one hole is for the IC pin and
only one can be used to solder something else, they are usable, but a pain).

Suggestions?  USA firms are best for me.
