Love the smell of solder

After I installed my citcuit board mounting bolts I realized the 2008 version of the instructions does not exactly match my 2007 kit.  Windows 7 is not able to read the CD-ROM (and it cant seem to read a bunch of my other old cd's) so I am hoping there is no huge differences.  This was just a minor change in bolt placement.



Next up was firing up the solder station and completing the heater windings.  No real issues, just not exactly certain how to optimize the use of the two hole lugs.  I think once I've built one of these I would know which lugs get loaded with additional connections and which ones you can just solder to the top hole.

Finally the grounding wire to chassis lug and filter cap and Step 3 is now complete.
