Re: gEDA-user: 2 layer home-made PCB

[Rob Butts <r.butts2@xxxxxxxxx>]

   When you say a wire, are you talking hollow wire so that the component
   can be inserted into the hole also?  I'm not understanding.  Does the
   22ga wire lay beside the component lead?  If that's the case all the
   thru holes will be too small.



   I hate to use the word assume but I assumed the solder would just
   bridge along the component lead to the other side of the board.

     You mean for vias?  I doubt you'd be able to get solder to bridge a
     via for you, you'll need to put a wire or something through the
     hold.
     I use 22ga speaker wire, destranded.
