Title: Clever trick!

When you don't have any jumper shunts but you have a wire wrap tool.

Nice job, Chris. Is this your work?

I've wanted a wire-wrap/unwrap tool for quite a while, just never had the motivation to go ahead and get one.

While I DO have a wire-wrap tool, this isn't my work. There's a link under the photo to the original post. But I have been known to use F-F jumper wires to do this very same thing. Shunts were in short supply for me in the 90s. But, because of my computer shop, I had an entire parts drawer full of them by 2001. I also had a parts drawer with the 2mm ones as well. Don't have those anymore, but I still have a large supply of F-F jumper wires.  ;)
