Yes, I think that would be very helpful. I just completed the MOTM-900 last
night (YAY!), but not tested yet. My soldering skills need some work. But
hey, this my first real attempt at soldering. Everything looks good, except
that despite my dilligence in reading the instructions, I got excited and
soldered on one of the transformer leads before putting on the shrink wrap.
D'oh!! I don't want to go back and unsolder it (I used the more-is-better
method of attaching it), but I would like to cover the lead. Is electrical
tape an acceptable substitute? Or any other kind of wrap? I don't plan on
doing this reguarily, but that lead bothers me.
--PBr, who thinks heating shrink wrap with the soldering iron is terribly
tedious and now really wants a shrink wrap gun.
