Yup, Hans, your page has been in the bookmarks of the Group home
page for weeks!

Hint, hint, everyone, check out the Bookmarks at the Group home

Do you think one of those warmer plates would work? Not a hotplate,
I mean those glass warmer things. I was just figuring they are
pretty cheap at the thrift store.

Also a reminder that when you do this, the solder paste must be dry
before you start trying to solder, or any fluids will boil and push
the parts off the pads. Should be able to do that by warming it up
on your pre-warmer for a bit.
