Woohoo, I can start!

My K1 and mini modules arrived on Thursday...but I had to wait on the  
wtcpt solder station(btw, these are the same stations I used in  
aviation electricians school for the U.S. Navy...if I remember  
correctly). Anyways, the iron arrived today, so I am off to burn some  
solder!

Slow down there!

You'll have much better luck if you let the iron do its temperature
control thing. Melted solder works much better than burnt solder.  hi

Enjoy the build. When you're done you will wish it took longer.
