I was using the smart tweezers to verify a tiny SMT cap in my junk
bin. Guess I was holding it too tight and the cap slipped, became
airborne and
was never found.
I wonder if the new breed of the smart tweezers has a lighter touch?
Nice
tool though for the most part.
Work inside a plastic bag. I use gallon size ziplocks.

No good for static sensitive parts.

Boil a kettle.


And be sure to chant:

Eye of newt, toe of frog,
wool of bat, and natural log.

(the engineer's spell, of course)


Stirred gently with a wood slide rule?

Did you hear about the constipated economist?

He worked it out with a pencil.

Cheers!
