SMT testing

I bought these smd resistors in a set, had some dirt cheap LEDs and a piece of pcb left over, so I thought I'd make a LED bar (CC for a change). Tested at every step, finally it was plugged to the tiny2313 board that was pretending to be a free running binary counter. I learned some things..

 

- Rotary tool and this thin pcb material don't really mix

- My cheap superglue won't stick to plastic, but glues fingers

- Don't forget to clean the copper

- I can easily attach this size parts to tinned pads with a mini iron at 0.5s/joint

- The mini iron runs out of steam with a few traces and a cable

- I really should get back to the toner transfer again

- Hot air is so convenient
