Hi all,

We're planning an assembly day on 2 or 3 Aug for the PCBs for the smartphone/brain-computer interface project we're making for EMF camp.

Does anyone know if there are any problems with the resolder oven?

If you enjoy puzzles with small pieces, or assembling ships in bottles, and wanted to try your hand at PCBs, please let me know.

Thank you,

Colin

We used it a couple of months ago and it was working fine! Don't think it gets used a lot.

It worked fine when I used it. I believe it's not amazingly even especially out towards the edges, so you might not get proper reflow on the edges if you fill it full. Generally doing something twice is harmless so it won't matter testing it by filling it up all the way.

I had great results from it.
