| Mount PCBs together in a 90° angle |

| SL4P:
Simple trick from the old days. prepare the two boards (with 90-degree support if needed) solder the 90-degree meeting point as shown |

This is quite a common technique for mounting (small) boards at right angles. --- End quote --- I have worked on test instruments that used this construction method. Invariably one of the solder joints will have a crack. They make right angle pin headers which are perfect for this. |

I will go with SL4Ps method, since it is easier to manufacture. When there will be problems with cracked solder joints I will try something else. |

Doesn't that look very nice? ^-^ |
