Actually the Arduino Prototype Shield can be two things, a perf board or a breadboard.
If you want to solder things on it, don’t need to stick a breadboard. Can solder your own circuit.
But for me, I rely heavily on breadboard, so I chose to stick a breadboard on top of it instead.

For more info, here is a Prototype Shield by ladyada.

You can either solder your circuit on it or stick a breadboard.

Thanks for the comment

So What are the copper tracks that are underneath and unsoldered for ?
There is a lot of circuitry there which just is not used?

Thanks
I didnt apply any protective coating on the copper side. If oxidise also just leave it la lol.
But before I solder i got use sand paper to get rid of the oxidation first.

Shouldn’t affect any thing except for the looks.

OMG, bro!! Pro!!

Nice working.

Hvae never done that yet.
Hey oh ya, how about the protective coating ? The copper will easily oxidise easily isnt that ?
