Hi,
I thought you might be interested in the newest project article on my
website called "Building Circuits for Stripboard using EAGLE". This
article, first published on 13 June, 2005 describes the process I use
for building circuits on stripboard (aka Veroboard in Europe). I use
EAGLE to draw the schematic and help design the circuit layout on
stripboard. Some of this article may be useful even if you use other
techniques for building circuits. As an example I build a simple audio
signal generator and a mono audio amplifier.

Mike, outstanding. I normally use proto boards with a pad per hole
layout and a ground plane surrounding the holes but they can be spendy
and also labor-intensive soldering 30AWG wire-wrap wire.

Thanks Tom.
Make sure you are using wire-wrap wire where the insulation melts when
soldered :)
The design time is probably about the same - there's no getting away
from well-laid components and connections whatever your choice of
implementation. Wire-wrap is better if you think you are going to change
the circuit a lot - at least until you solder it. But then you have
those 1" pins sticking out everywhere :)
Perhaps I have convinced you to at least try out stripboard for your
next project.
Regards,
Mike

Mike, I don't actually use wire-wrap pins, just the wire with Kynar
insulation which does not melt when you solder it.
