Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Re: Through plating - double sided

2006-04-11 by Jacques Meunier

Hello

i disagree for solder quality, very bad work. Cold solder, not enough solder, solder joint missing (lower side of the 2K2 resistor near the tantalum capacitor, left side of the board)

need a serious "touch-up" work before leaving factory

but photo quality is perfect. 

regards

Jacques

  Search these archives on >plumber's solder paste<, discussion goes back 
  to around August 15, 2005.

  Radio Shack, any rosin core solder should do, just use a toothbrush and 
  mineral spirits to clean off the residue.
