This is a continuation of This demonstrates (with a completely new part) how to convert a minimal 2-D image part (a Yahboom lego motor in this case) in to a simulated 3-D part in breadboard via Inkscape. We will start from this part which is a basic 2-d representation of the part using nothing more than rectangles that looks like this: [2d-bb] svg.breadboard.yahboom-red-motor_1_breadboard-starting-2d.svg.fzp (4.3 KB) (you need to remove the trailing .fzp from this to get the .svg file whi…

Is about as close as there is. Pin spacing is easy, just use the tool bar with the dimensions set to in and space the pins. Here I set the tool bar to in and pin 0 is at x 0.021in and y is 0.02in

pin1 is at x 0.072in y 0.021in. To set the pin spacing start from the pin0 x coord and add the spacing in inches that you want (in breadboard that should typically be 0.1in to stay on the grid, but can be the actual spacing between pins.)

Same for y although that isn’t shown here. Note the start point in the lastest version of Inkscape is the top left of the drawing element. In earlier versions it was bottom left.
