Holder/Raft for Solderless Breadboard & Power Module

thingiverse

It seems that you need to attach these breadboards to something, otherwise the power rails tend to fall off or push the contacts out of the bottom. Instead of cutting a raft to size from a piece of plastic or wood, I found it easier to just print one at the right size. I also decided that adding support for the part of the power supply module that extends beyond the edge of the board would minimize stress on the connector pins and circuit board. The raft works perfectly with the power supply module I have (I shortened the leads on the underside by a bit) but there are several types/designs of modules, so if you have one of those then this print will only serve as an example. I had to print the raft upright to fit on my PrintrBot Play, so I used a brim, but it will print fine without one if you print it horizontally. The 123d Design file is included here.
