Bread Board from IDE Cables

Step 2 DIssasemble the IDE Cable

Using a small screwdriver pop the backs off ouy your IDE jacks. Then carefully remove the ribbon cables from the pins. Care should be taken to not pull the pins out as each one that is removed will be a dead socket on your bread board. This is also a good time to sand down the nubs on the jacks so they wil be easier to glue together later.
