I guess I should stick to Mechanical components and leave the electriacal to the professionals, LOL
I'm in the process of building a DRO (digital read out) for one of my machines at home..... I did something wrong here, hahahaha When I built my Megasquirt, I popped a few components as well, but I was able to trace those back to user error (mine) Attached image(s)

Umm
One of those good expensive soldering irons can go a long way towards making a sucessful solder joint. One of those units with a big seperate power box and a cord going to the iron. They get hot enough to make the solder joint quickly without toasting the electrical components. Right tool for the right job! Ken |
