I found this schematic to make a 120Hz LED strobe for adjusting the speed of my turntable:
I'm totally new to hobbyist electronics, but I've managed to get it working on a breadboard. Now I need to get it onto stripboard, and find a case for it.
The schematic came with PCB artwork:
But I don't have the means or know-how to make a PCB.
I got some 20x100 stripboard instead (this stuff: http://amzn.com/B008CHCQ8C).
Can anyone help me with designing a layout for stripboard? The LEDs would need to be near the edge of the board, but other than that it should just be as compact as possible.
Here's what I managed to come up with on my own using VeeCAD (maybe this is already good?):
I've got the resistors standing up so that they take up less space, but they don't have to be that way.
Thanks!
