Hi, Our paste release problems have been solved, and we worked on the stencil, and things are working well now. However this board was designed before we knew what was going on, and we thought a little more size on the pads would be a big help. Is

First, wheat beer is not intended to be consumed at this time of the year in the northern hemishpere. It is ment to be consumed on the back porch, while smoking the LARGEST cigar you own, after mowing the lawn on a day that is so hot that the dog ca

DDave, I do not have the benefit of having the old machine here for comparison unfortunately. Comparing topside wetting to old sample boards run on the older machine show similar results. No solder balls. I have a thermal profiler and have run ma

Hey Neat, We share some of the same books, although I would strongly recommend he expand his collection. That Flex book is only one, the most pricey one, of many on that technology. JUST Kidding THANKS!! If we started listing all our magazine, te

I totally agree with Dave! How long does diplomacy take? Was it the US that had "total diplomatic failure" OR the French who made sure that any deadline date of the 13 yr. old resolution would get vetoed? So, Saddaam needs a break and more time? I

Look for a local smelting service. They will take your boards (in bulk, we used to send them 300lbs at a time) and then credit you back for the precious metals recovered (gold, silver, platinum, etc...) minus any fees for service. Shipping costs a
