Hi all,
I am beginning my electronics journey, and would like to build some semi-permanent circuits mostly just for educational reasons.
Is there any reason not to use corrugated cardboard as a backing material instead of breadboards? I want to use wire wrap sockets, poke holes through the cardboard, and doing the wrapping like normal on the back. A little hot glue and duck tape whenever necessary to add more structure.
Any reason why not? It seems cheap and easy and a good use of found materials. I hate soldering, and I won't use it for RF stuff.
Plus it might work with electrically driven paper robots. Like maybe the following http://www.amazon.com/Paper-Models-That-Move-Papercraft/dp/0486477932
Thanks!
