======================

this picture shows the resistor near the power input jack. use heat shrink
(aka: spaghetti wrap, shrinking spaghetti) to make a "shell" around the
resistor and the exposed solder joint on top of it (at the red wire, in
this picture). this prevents the solder joint from wiggling around and
shorting out against anything.
