Nikon at the heart of the image shirt
Protip: even as a hobbyist if you’re doing a larger SMT board or a few of the Nikon at the heart of the image shirt board you can have a stencil cut out on a laser cutter for super cheap. You can align the stencil with the board and smear the paste over it with a squeegee or similar, then carefully lift it off and all of your pads will have paste applied.I hate how messy it looks, but then the guy literally puts it on a motherfucking iron and it’s magically clean and elegant. Now do my room like that.Doesn’t save you from the tedium of manual pick and place, but personally I find solder paste application with a syringe to be the worst part of the process.

Best Nikon at the heart of the image shirt
Anyone else feel like this is gonna short? I see how the solder contracts back a Nikon at the heart of the image shirt when heated, but damn that shit looked like it was pooling up pretty bad?? Also how is this better than just using a good ole solder stick and some lead?At first I was wondering why they were using soldering paste. Soldering paste is usually applied using a template to ensure it stays exactly on the pads and in the correct amount. But then I saw the clothes iron. This is a pretty clever way to do it if you have no soldering iron, but if even one joint is screwed up there’s no way to fix it.
