OTD 360c build log
kustom3:
Lovely read, thanks for walking us through your process!

These boards have so much more character than the partially-soldered, hotswap modern PCBs. I have a feeling we'll see far fewer build logs of substance going forward now that everything is so streamlined plug-n-play.

For my edification, what do you mean by "using tweezers". I still do what OP did -- pull the legs through, bend them over so they don't fall over, flip the board, and tack them in place.

I am talking about the SMD diodes not the trough hole ones. Not everything is babied for you with old kits or niche kits ;)
