process, just a little less controlled) and there wasn't much cleanup
with leaded solder.
I'm happy to help you out when the time comes.
I enjoy soldering, though. I feel like it's been
a productive day
when I can't get the smell of burnt rosin out of my nostrils.
Ohhhh yes. :-)
It's a
smell that brings back as many fond memories as the smell of burnt
gunpowder, which just smells like mischief. :-)
Ahh, you too, eh? ;)
