A good default ratio is the golden mean.

I know about the golden mean. can you elaborate on the calculation you'd
use to get to the width of the breadboard end with this method? I guess
I'm not seeting how you'd apply it.

thanks


Joe, I was of the opinion you had the width worked out and the overall
length, less the ends was known as well. If I was doing it, I'd take the
width, multiply by 1.6 or 1.7, then subtract the existing length and
divide by 2.

Oh, ok. I get where you were going. I'll post pics to abpw when it's
finished.

Thanks.
