I've been away for a long time from circuit building and at that time there was two methods that I used one was Getting copper clad boards and chemicals to remove unwanted copper and leaving a copper circuit.
The easier one was the Wire wrap and I used it alot. It had elongated legs on IC sockets and a tool that received the stripped section of a thin wire and you placed it on the elongated leg and twisted clockwise and it made very good contact.
I wonder if anyone still uses Wire wrap anymore and if parts are still available. The following parts are necessary for this type of circuit
IC sockets with Wire wrap posts
Special wire that fits wrap tool
Wrap tool
Pin out insert to show pin layout from underneath (not necessary but nice)
I would appreciate any advice before I start using this method and not be able to finish it
I still have the tool and some wire and sockets
