modular breadboard

Warning There will be an updated version of the breadboard base in the near future, which can either be machined from plastic or 3D printed. I plan to use threaded inserts, which will likely require slight adjustments to the mounting hole area. This would also mean that the keep-out zone for the PCBs will change slightly.

This is the main repository for the modular breadboard project and it also contains the 3D files for all available breadboard bases.

I decided to start this project because I wasn't happy with the quality of existing breadboard/banana-jack combinations and it kinda escalated from there.
