US soldering services
« on: Wed, 08 June 2016, 17:05:36 »
Can anyone recommend a good soldering service in the US?  All the users in the artisan wiki seem to be inactive (some for years) and not many active ones in the Artisan Services section.  I am looking to only swap out switches.  Thanks!

Like mike said, a lot of people will do it here for you, but soldering isn't that hard once you get the hang of it.

You should buy one of those dirt cheap mechanical boards that use Oetemu switches and practice desoldering and then re-soldering the switches back on. You can get a decent beginner desoldering kit on amazon for around $20.

Wait a sec, why should I trust someone who has "Cherry sucks" in their footer?  :p

I would love to but I don't think I can afford to learn at this point in time, I think paying for someone to do it would be better than getting a board and kit then potentially paying for my mistakes...once I become rich that will be the first thing I get though!  :thumb:
