Experiment PCB Holder

thingiverse

For non RF electronics experiments I often use experimental PCB's with holes. When the experiment starts to be used on a regular basis, it's nice to build it in a cabinet. But sometimes that isn't the best option. For example when you build a AVR programmer adapter for programming ATMEGA328P micro controllers or a ISP programmer for bare Arduino NANO boards where you need to stick parts in or on. Leaving the PCB exposed can be tricky thing on a workbench where sometimes small particles of metal are laying around. For those cases I designed a simple PCB holder for 2x8 cm and the 4x6 cm PCB's. They accept the PCB perfectly and have 4 push pins to fixate the PCB to the holder. Allowing the experiment to be placed on any surface without the risk of shorts. For example on my ATMEGA328P programmer.
