I’ll try to get some pictures as I build.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Also, another big time saver is to use vacuum tweezers to place the parts. ie.

I'll also add additional insulation referencing<br class="">

Dave is charging ahead with his build and we can reference his build<br class="">
for the sgvhak build your own reflow oven hackathon.<br class="">
