I’ll have what you’re smoking Perry.....aw hell, this Turbo Lemon Cake is just fine...

I like the way the shield was handled there...way neater than coiling up some long shield and running it to the tab...

No meltback, no blobs...that lad can solder..

My soldering used to be WAY better when I had a good Microscope. I used a scope for every joint I soldered back a few years. Now the cost of a good stereo-scope is too expensive so I have to do it with my Marty Feldman eyes.

Well, I hadn't even considered a scope to solder with..

When we went through soldering school/connector repair/board repair, we soldered under the scope because that's how the instructors inspected and signed off on your work. To cheat, we'd polish the solder joint with a q-tip to make the shit stand out. But under the scope was the only way to ensure ALL the flux was gone and there was no dewetting of the pad.

I have one of these: https://www.sciplus.com/celestron-handheld-digital-microscope-64534-p


It's not stereo. But on my 65" TV ( monitor) it helps. I bought it when I was nursing Marla's horrific leg wounds for 12 months straight couple years ago. Snaps pics real nice too.

You will when you start playing with surface mount components.

I have a similar chineeze digital mofo and it don't compare to a good stereo scope

Understood. I used a stereo when I was faceting gemstones.

My company I worked for in St Paul (Guidant which is now Boston Scientific), sent me through surface mount school. We did get a fair amount of it in the Navy class too. The trick is, Tiny bit of solder, and lots of flux.

Doesn't get much pertier inside a WOPL, nope.
