If you do not believe in MAGIC, Consider how currency has value simply by printing it, and is then traded for real assets.

Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, barter is the money of peasants - but debt is the money of slaves

The large ones (3220 holes) were the first ones to go a few years ago. Nowadays, I only buy the smaller ones (630 holes?) as I need 'em and link 'em up. I suppose I could've cut the big ones up, didn't think of it at the timeHandy as they are, they can sure cause some headaches here and there...
I consider them, "One time use only".
And buy a new one for each project. Or actually 4-5 at a time.

Usually leave the parts in them for future reference too.

Hi,
Are you talking about breadboards?
I use 3M solderless breadboards. (300 Series).
- Same insertion force for all the holes of the breadboard.
(The wire will not bend when you try to plug it).
- Gold-plated contacts.

I also use them few times.. not much.
In the past i used some defect one to test the intelligence of new employee.
'ok guy, here's the schematic, here's the parts.. build it on this breadboard as clean as you can... and make it work, you have 15 minutes'![]()

It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
