I’ve been doing the same with my projects for years, except for the planning part.
Thanks!
That’s a classic. Guess where the name “breadboard” for a prototype board comes from. Yes, from people using wooden breadboards (the ones originally intended for, uhm, cutting bread), plus a bunch of nails or thumbtack to build a circuit.
Coldly efficient PCBs abstract the life out of circuits (I know productions demands and high frequencies mandate it, but still). Beautiful!
Here’s a morse code transmitter for an arduino. It can also be made using only an ATTINY13V, battery and length of wire:

@John-
I never knew why it was called breadboard.
