This article describes how to make a simple low cost breadboard .you can build an electronic circuit on a bread board without any soldering .best of all it is reusable. This simple breadboard makes it easy to use for creating temporary prototype and experimenting with circuit design .The interesting thing behind this project is that you can build it at home by using easily available parts. The problem with this model is you cannot use ICs .

fig_1 materials required for the project.JPG

Materials required for this project is listed below and shown in fig.1:

1. Aluminium foil 2. Foam 3. Adhesive (like fevicol) 4. Utility knife 5. Scissors

fig_2 cutting foam into two pieces.JPG

Construction and testing:

Step .1: cut the foam in half by using a utility knife as shown in fig.2.

Step.2: cut aluminium foil by using a scissors according to the prototype model shown in fig.3.

Stick aluminium foil pieces in to the foam (fig.4) by using adhesive.
