When my kits arrive, I intend to have my girlfriend's snakes holding the PCB
midair while it's dangling from a light fixture. The snakes are pretty
complacent and just tend to hang around, especially when near heat sources,
so I don't anticipate any problems. Then I'll have both hands free for
soldering / threading / etc. Hopefully, the iguana will keep an eye out for
randomly flying pieces.
--PBr, anxiously waiting that first fix... er, kit. :)
