Hi!
I've just got a problem with a Yellow Shark.
All pcb's holes was been hard to solder and a piece of link just jump of the board  :(
What can I do?
Thank you

It's weekend man, patience!  ;D

So, from what I gather, you lost the connection between round (cathode) LED pad and switch wire?

memor82

Sorry :-)
This is the single sided version.
I lost Sw and catode (circle)led pad
Thank you

Run a wire from square LED pad to offboard LED anode and another wire from LED cathode to switch, that's all.

memor82

Ok I'll try!
Thank you so much.
Good weekend man

That's gonna work for sure, what you lost does nothing more than give you nice labeled pads. It's a connection from LED cathode to wire which you can skip altogether since the LED is offboard anyways.

understood.there's always something to learn :-)
Thank you man

No problem! Let us know when you sort it out!

memor82

Sorry man,
but I think that this pcb is faulty.
Now has jump off the "out" pad  :'(
They letterally came off from the pcb


muddyfox


No problem, just solder it anywhere on the track leading from the missing pad. Hole is not really necessary if the wires are not under stress.

Ok thanks!

Your iron might be too hot, also try to make the time you're on a pad with your iron less than 6 sec
always the beautiful answer who asks a more beautiful question.

I agree that your iron may  be too hot if you are lifting traces and pads that easily/quickly.

310 °c, few seconds
Already assembled Pork Barrel and a Retrograde and many other pedals from musikding and tagboard with no problem.
