I can't solder miniature connectors anymore...any tricks?
I had a huge struggle with soldering a couple of DB-9 connectors, my
vision and fine motor control just aren't what they used to be. And, I only had to make 5 connections on the DB-9's, it took me close to an hour. These are for a DRO, I've been using a break-out box until now on 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. |
