With Paul's approval, I'd be willing to assemble modules for other
customers.  In order not to undersell ST, I'd have to charge a fee close to
the difference in price between the kits and the assembled modules.

I think I'm a very good builder, although Paul complained that I don't have
to clean my "no clean" solder.  I think it was something about the name :)

Anyway, I just finished knitting a Volvo together, then I have to knit a
VW, which will take a couple of weeks, but after that I'll have time to
knit other people's modules, especially considering most of the modules I'm
planning to buy for myself are not available yet.
