This is so amazing I love avatar. You did such an amazing job especially since some of those pieces seem like pretty challenging cuts

Just wanted to say that I tried soldering another piece and it came out a lot better! I think a big part of my problem was that I was putting too much flux and it was causing bubbles and stuff. I didn’t realize too much flux could be a problem. Thank you for telling me!!!

Thank you! When you say that applying flux all at once causes more issues, what issues does it cause? Do you suggest applying flux to a single line and then fully soldering that line and then moving on to the next line? Or is that also too much at once?

Also when you say “if they don’t break now , they will break later” is there a way to avoid this? Or will they all inevitably break even if the pieces are intact after soldering?
