SparkFun ProtoShield




I got this in the mail on Thursday but they sent it to me with three 330Ω resistors instead or two 330Ω and one 10kΩ.  I called them up and I got the missing resistor in the mail today.

It went together really easily. It was some good practice for through hole soldering. I found a good trick for the sockets though. Rather than using a 3rd hand or something to hold them in place, put them in their sockets, cover them with a 3x5 and flip it. They will all level out and you can just plug and chug down the rows.
