[sdiy] surface to DIP resistor converter?

[René Schmitz]

Hi all,

Take a piece of stripboard just one trace wide, and make a sharp cut 
through the trace with a dremel and fine circular saw. Then you have a 
sturdy adapter.

This works similarly also for SO cases, you just split the trace 
lengthwise then, so you have traces in 1.27mm raster.

Cheers,
  René
