I did it.
I'll blog more about how it went down (very well!) tomorrow.
@wohali gratz on making the stencil work. i'm still afraid of trying paste..
@MightyPork it was SO EASY. I had the entire board done in under 15 minutes.
@wohali how did you reflow it? hot air or some oven?
@MightyPork Toaster oven with a controller: http://reflowster.com/
@wohali ahh that's neat! i think i'll try to build this with an old heating pad from a kettle (no toaster ovens around here, sadly...)
@wohali good to hear, this is basically how I plan to do it (need to read up on switching AC first)
@MightyPork there's an electric skillet approach, too. I hear good things from friends about using them.
