It is windy, cold, and dark in the mid-west right now as I am drafting up
what, why, and where for my digijet digitool circuits.

This group the last few hours has provided much needed entertainment during
the breaks.

I tried soldering some ribbon cable onto a junk circuit board I had laying
around. I was using a 30 watt Radio Shack soldering iron, but it appears to
be to hot and is melting some of the printed circuit part of the circuit
board.

I'm going to get a 15 watt one tomorrow, and see if that one will get the
pin connection hot enough to melt the solder but not the printed part on the
board.

I am using regular rosin core solder and dipping the wire in flux first. It
is going fairly well.

Thanks Volks,
Mark Ingalls
