I had a huge struggle with soldering a couple of DB-9 connectors, my

only had to make 5 connections on the DB-9's, it took me close to an

the mismatched scales and display. Remember, the display bit the dust a
while ago.

I did have the connectors locked in a miniature vice but I couldn't
think of any other techniques that would help.


Try putting on some wrist weights to act as tremor dampers.
