smashed

fair enough, thanks for the response.

my ‘extra hands’ station w/ the two alligator clips to hold the subject, magnifying glass w/ led also has a holster for a hot iron, so I pop the hot iron in that after soldering.

the wire coming from the iron, whether it goes to a battery pack or the 250 eur smart battery is still the hangup for me. I build large things with nicrocobntrollers in them, so I need to soldier in super awkward places. a wire connecting the iron to anything is a massive liability.

Id be interested to hear how you get on with it though

I love my ifixit precision screwdriver, so I’d be a fan and would try this out.

The thing is once I switched to a butane iron (portable, hot in 20 seconds, awesome fire) I don’t have any interest in anything with a wire coming off of the back of it. battery or no, the wire being in the way is ass and is also crap

edit: maybe it doesnt have a wire?

edit 2: maybe I shoulda read the article before typing? 5 second heat-up time, wow… seeing as I am a fucking idiot and am also very tired, can someone who is smart tell me if the iron has a battery itself? the pack is for recharging the small battery in the pen?

you know what was well done? the spam slices! heyoooooooo

do you love me

this is a teaching moment I did not expect, but life lessons are rarely scheduled. I thank you from my soul

I ship anything: tony and dr melphi on the sopranos was a big one. more recently I re-watched the wire and I was shipping bunk and rhonda, but it never happened :(

it was fine. a sprinkle of oregano would have gone a long way in the presentation dept

This is a bridge I cannot cross with you

I ate em

I dont know what that means I’m afraid

thats how I cook, I only use the left side of the pan if I have absolutely no choice

no the Easy Singles were perfectly melted. Thank you for the feedback on the char

I tip my cap to both of you

how do you think lucas came up with the name?

and when the axe killer is looking for you in the dark he just has to listen for the sound of a robot jerking off

that actually makes sense

thats so cool

please dont bring this shitty kind of thread joke to lemmy from reddit

why the hell are there two hills and two exit tracks for the programmers? the turbine is going to get hit in opposite directions
