What's included...
The Brother comes entirely pre-soldered, though you will need a screwdriver to attach the optional 9V battery holder and angled risers (if you want to use them).
The Brother also includes a JST PH to pin cable assembly (for use with the built-in Probe Caddy) and a JST XH to 9V battery clip cable assembly.
About The Brother
All of the comforts offered by The Mother, without some of the fancy indulgences of The Breadboard Butler.
The Brother (which comes pre-soldered and ready to rock), is a breadboarding platform that makes swapping projects as easy as changing sheets of paper in a three ring binder. And unlike The Mother (which requires a separate breadboarding module for I/O), The Brother sports all the core features you need as well as a few extra bells and whistles built-in.
Stereo I/O, switched DC barrel jack and 9V battery clip, signal bypass switch, quick-release spring clips, angled risers, and a built-in Probe Caddy!
Patch the LEFT and RIGHT sockets that flank the breadboard loading zone to feed your breadboard and off you go.
When you're done with your breadboard project, or when you need to switch to something new, mid-project, instead of ripping it up to clear your breadboard, just disconnect the patches from the LEFT/RIGHT sockets, release the little spring clips, and lift off your breadboard (parts still inserted) to replace it with a fresh one.

Trim Buddy
It's another handy little tool to help you study, test, and experiment with a little more ease. I wanted a way to read a situated trimpot's values without having to work around a precarious jungle of already placed jumpers and parts just to rip it out of my breadboard. This little helper tool does just that. READ MORE...$20 USD BUY/DETAILS ⮕ -
Trim Buddy XL
Don't fumble with fixed resistors on your board - use a Trim Buddy XL and just dial in your resistances using 3296W style trimpots and then jumper them wherever you'd have stuck your resistor legs. Connect your multimeter to the loop hookups of the board and flip a switch to get a quick read on any of your trimpots. READ MORE...$8-$46 USD BUY/DETAILS ⮕ -
Earrings "Without a trace"
When life gives you lemons, make... earrings? After realizing the a mistake I made with a batch of failed PCBs I took to reddit to share my blunder and have a laugh at my own expense. Wasn't long before someone suggested I turn these little lemons into earrings. Long story short - now I sell jewelry. READ MORE...$9 USD BUY/DETAILS ⮕
