I think I will have to see what I have hidden away to see if I can also make some useful &amp;#39;expanders&amp;#39; . Or I might just buy bigger protoboards - which is what I currently do. Or build smaller projects.&lt;/p&gt;

I also use the headers for some prototyping with level shifters. I can replace the level shifters easily if they fail, and make the connections with the same jumpers as with a solderless breadboard......... without using a solderless breadboard.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Brilliant&amp;nbsp;idea!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have a box of odd bits of stripboard and headers!&lt;/p&gt;
