Why not use a regular straight header? You can use 0.1" spacing=20 f/breadboards, or 2mm spacing to be a bit more compact. Of course you ca= n=20 use a right-angle header, so you don't have to drill holes on the carrier= =20 board, but I tend not to trust the mechanical grip with this method. Cheers, -Neil.
