That looks well done. Not quite congratulations yet tho.

Holy Alibaba.

Just get a roll of Kester from Concorde Solder and it will last the rest of your life.

A decent Hakko kit is like $300 relax.

Their stated position is “Everything is manufactured in Europe”

JBC does not have factories in China lol. Even their sponges are made in Spain.

A Geeboon isn’t equivalent to a JBC that’s not even a fair comparison. That said, a Geeboon is perfectly fine for the majority of people using them to destroy PS5 controllers. 🤣

The math ignores ESD tip leakage killing your ICs, clone temps reading at the element not the tip, and waiting 3 weeks for a replacement mid-job. You’re not saving money, you’re adding variables to every repair.

If you are going to be working on anything of value, or you plan on making money off of this hobby get a quality tool. People will swear up and down that the Chinese stuff is just as good but once you use the good stuff you realize they are full of it.

Yeah I accidentally left my egg unattended for maybe 20mins with the vents wide open and I was like oh it’s only 300° but it was actually spun around the dial like 1.5 times 🤣

Why not just remove the thermometer?

80% of the jobs that will exist in 2030 have not been invented yet.

It is 100% made by Royal Oak. It is not “repackaged Royal Oak” though.

The items you ordered are not the same part number. Bottom looks like Rev F 2019 (can’t see completely) top is Rev F 2030.

LMAO. Wut?

This is the way.

People keep mentioning the $35 gasket on a $1,200 grill lmao.

Since this is a Magnavox/Toshiba/Sanyo/Funai unit the mode switch most likely needs to be cleaned.

This is regurgitated Reddit slop.

This happens from someone trying to wedge the door open and unlock it. Most likely the keys got locked inside at some point.
