Another cool idea for connecting vias for DIY double-sided PCBs

Tony Smith, , of the PICLIST gave me this idea:

Take a long piece of solid strand wire and thread it through all of the vias, like sewing. The wire should obviously be bare (stripped of all insulation). Solder one side, then the other. Do this for all the vias and clip off the excess wire and the interconnecting wire.

It’s fast, easy, cost-effective, and it works.
