Well, last month I soldered like 200 resistors. Here is the result:



16 future pedals....

The smt boards are from muddyfox and a marvel to work with (you just need a lot of solder braid and a standard iron with a fine tip).

Nice!  Great job with the smd, sure beats all that lead clipping...!

Thanks! I still have too much to solder to get it to look as neat as yours.... but you're right, time flies when you do smt soldering!

I was just about to comment how your smd soldering looks top notch!
Glad you're liking the boards, I planned to do a whole bunch more but life just got in the way...

Thank you Goran, your boards are a heaven to solder in!

This reminds me that this week I found some mmbt5089s between my stash that I ordered for you months ago... :-[ (sorry, I totally forgot about those).

I'll try to find time this week to send them to you...

Haha I wondered about those a couple of times, I just figured your group buy went sour and you didn't get them.
I'm sure there's a build in my drawer that still needs them so please send them over and invoice me, you have my paypal.
