looks pretty cool the only issue i dont like is that the cable always so heavy it moves the board. so i might make it like have a ribbon cable to another part like:

hi atom,
I always fix my project boards to either double or single sided copper pcb.
Old off cuts of copper plated pcb are OK. [plain or tinned]
Cut the copper pcb bigger than the project board by about an inch or so, either end.
Fix the project board in the centre of the copper pcb, most project boards have a peel off sticky back cover.
When the project board is affixed to the pcb, use short lengths of 'green' wire between the 0V rails of the project board and the copper backing pcb, solder the end that connects to the copper face.
Do this at both ends of the project ground rails. This gives the project board an excellent 'ground plane'.
I also fit upright tag strips to the free space on the copper face, the tags provide a 0V conenction
for the scope and meter leads.
On the other end of the project board I also mount tag strips and use them to bring
in my 'dc' power leads to the project board.
Add the large decoupling to the tags.
Add 6 sticky plastic feet to the underside of the copper board, this gives it better adhesion to your work bench
so it dosn't slide around.
Doing it this way makes the whole construction more secure.
