I suspect you mean "PC board" :-(. Try building a radio on a breadboard!
Screw down the transformers, octal sockets, etc., just like they did 50
years ago.
Alternatively, a lot of really good radios are built on nothing but
solid unetched PC board (as a ground plane) using "dead bug" construction.
Or hacked-into-squares-of-conductor board using "Manhattan" construction.
It's a true art form - and actually extremely sturdy.
