ESP-12E Breadboard-Friendly Pin Converter

thingiverse

I wanted to make it easy to use an ESP-12E module on a breadboard, so I designed something that fits the bill. The module must straddle the channel down the middle and leave at least one pin connection hole accessible on each side. This simple design lets you solder the module on top and routes connections via 22 Ga bare copper wire internally to 2.54 mm spaced channels. To assemble it, you'll need a few extra items: a spool of 22 Ga bare copper wire, needle nose pliers, wire cutters, a soldering iron, solder, and flux (recommended). I printed mine with natural color PETG, but the details are hard to make out in the photos. Assembly took about 35 minutes, but it was a breeze once I got the hang of fishing wires through. Next time around, things should go much quicker. Here are my print settings: Printer: Modified Wilson II Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: .24 Infill: 42% Notes: This model has several 1mm diameter holes that need to be dialed in. I got good results by dialing back to a single perimeter and using heavy infill.
