Instead of fumbling with fixed resistors while breadboarding, grab a Trim Buddy XL so you can 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 at the left of the board and simply flip a toggle switch to get a quick read on any of your trimpots.
The Trim Buddy XL offers up to six adjustable resistances.
Finally, if you need more than six resistances for a project, you can daisy chain multiple Trim Buddy XL's to each other using a three wire JST PH (2.0mm) cable. This will allow your connected multimeter to read any of the daisy chained trimpots without having to move it from board to board.
