Talk:Point-to-point construction

message: Via a discussion on the Dr. Z forum it was indicated by some of the members that true point to point does not use toggle boards as indicated on this article but is instead just wired component to component in rather messy style.  Can someone weigh in on this?  Relevant link here:  Madness 01:29, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

message: This method is NOT just used for prototype equipment, or it this intro just badly written?. It is certainly not often used anymore, especially for 'domestic' electronics. Was used in specialised low run equipment and in some military applications, through personal experience.
Six years ago (2003) I was commercially manufacturing power supplies for Aeronautical Navigational Aids eg. DME, VOR and DVOR. These were old (but proven) designs, and had a relay, large capacitors and large transformers. Some of the wiring was connected with crimp lugs as the caps and relay had screw lugs.
The rest of the equipment was rackmounted and had large wiring harnesses connecting together many chassis' holding lots of PCB modules. Certainly that is also a form of point to point.
I know I'm being very picky, but an encylopedia has to be accurate.

thread_title:  Intro Query - prototype? 

message: This article seems to be confusing 2 distinct types of wiring.
First is what is called 'hard wired' here in the UK. This doesn't use any tagboards, large components are fixed in place, and small ones strung between them.
Second is the tagboard system, where most or all small components are mounted on tagboards, and wires run from these to the large mounted components.
Hybrids of the 2 methods have of course been used as well.

Is not point to point wiring according to any definition.
It has nothing in common with the picture directly above it.
References to the picture and that type of construction as point to point needs to be removed.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.195.136.86 (talk) 02:54, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: File:Point to point wiring.jpg clearly shows an example of point to point wiring on turret board, so I'm puzzled by this request. The description of the photo also states: "Point to point(PTP) wiring scheme on a homemade tube amplifier circuit." and even the photo's source backs this up. --Tothwolf (talk) 12:16, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
