Circuit Breadboard Layout

Do you actually have a breadboard ? They're pretty easy to use.
Just try making a simple switch with an LED on the board before getting into other components.

Yeah, everything that is connected together on your schematic needs to be connected together on your proto board. Sorry if that is a "duh" response! So the black dots mean more than two components connect at that junction. Otherwise where there is a line from a resistor to something else for example, connect them with a wire on your proto board. Again, apologies if this is obvious but your (OP) question implied to me it was not.
If you have the old board. Just mimic the components as best as you can. Automotive transistors are proprietary. Good luck on that.... Finding a socket to match the pinout is. I will defer to JBP....

Not quite what I was thinking of.I'm starting with this little board that I had left over from another project.
I have build tube amps before, I just have always had a layout to start with...
This allows you to plug in parts without soldering.
I built a bunch of circuit boards when I was a kid and used a bread board to pre-build before etching a circuit board and soldering parts into place. Fun stuff.
We made circuit boards in a high school trade-skills class. Put some shit over the copper then dumped it in an acid bath or something to eat away the copper. The shop teacher said he had do chelation therapy every couple weeks due to all the dissolved heavy metals in his body.
Thanks got the replies guys!
I got mine built, but when it didn't work, I realized that one of the transistors I bought isn't what the guy said it was, so back to Frys. The thing I really like is how tiny the circuit is.
I need to get a real breadboard, so I can test the next one before I build it....

You can get some things at "The Shack", but it is scarce. Last time I needed some capacitors o a project they had 2 of the 8 I needed at one, some had none. 3 years of high school electronics (and a degree in electronics from ITT
). I used to get and build a ton crap from RS.
