Oh I'm so sold on these babies !!

I just 'inherited' a heap of them from a sim I'm rebuilding. It makes
wiring so so so much easier and neater.

Here's a pic of the dist board I'm stripping down.

Note the two small grey boxes at top left. Each one has a wee circuit
board in so that you can add your own interfaces or whatever to the
system. So cool, so easy, so nice !

In the UK, RS Components seems to be the obvious choice. I did find a load
on Evilbay too though.

Nice thing is that the connectors come in many different sizes so they'll
cope with signal or power requirements. In fact, you can get rail-mounting
PSU's, fuse holders, timers, relays etc etc.
