Shh, it’s a surprise.

Oh OK, I’ll keep it for myself

You have huge import taxes? I always see you doing loads of work on parts that really could be just replaced?

Pedrodemio · August 10, 2020, 4:26pm

That is one of putting it lol

High taxes (60+%) over goodies and shipping cost (makes no sense) and a crap exchange rate that gets worse every day, so even things that are cheap and disposable for most get really expensive

@Creavenger I wondered whether you were going to start selling those, guess I have my answer now! How do I buy one and what’s the price?

Venom121212 · August 10, 2020, 10:06pm

Got something you want to say?

It’s no NASA standard but I didn’t think it was that bad…

Creavenger · August 10, 2020, 10:37pm

More details coming in the next few days

Venom121212 · August 10, 2020, 10:38pm

I didn’t think it looked too bad

Helpful tips guys, thanks for the feedback.

Looks good bro, could be he wasn’t posting this for you anyways. If he did who cares

Venom121212 · August 10, 2020, 11:12pm

Thank you my friend.

I just want to know if it’s bad or not for real though

@Venom121212 That joint looks great to me. My old job consisted of soldering new boards into gamma scintillation detectors, and everything I touched went through an IPC inspector. Your joint would pass his inspection by a long shot.

Venom121212 · August 10, 2020, 11:30pm

Phew thank you man!

b264 · August 10, 2020, 11:39pm

Looks great, man.

If it was mine, I’d put some MG Chemicals #4223 on there, and before that dries, shrinkwrap it

maybe if there are any sharp points, file those flat first

looks awesome

I get it from amazon.

However, the old ones with the brush cap are like fifty times better than the new childproof brushless cap versions. I keep moving my old caps to the new bottles.

If I had to dirty and clean a tiny brush every time I used it, I’d spend all day washing brushes. Fuck that. Plus, I’d probably only use it on one fifth of the things I would have used it on, if I could apply some (start to finish) in a few seconds like with the brush caps.

I’d recommend buying or making a brush cap, it’s worth it. Epoxy can make that easy

You would put that on your food if it was edible

Scepterr · August 11, 2020, 4:01am

put some heatshrink on your alligator clips to keep them from digging into insulation and better grip, also make it’s safer if you stick a live PCB in them

Scepterr · August 11, 2020, 4:07am

that probably won’t explode since it seems to have leaked already but if it does you just provided shrapnel for it to send flying
