exxos's Atari, Amiga & retro forum

Hi, I'm new on this forum but I've been buying Exxos' great Atari products for a little while now.

I would like to get in on this project if I still can... please put me down for 2 boards.

I'd be very interested in one as well...but I'm not sure my soldering skills are up to the job just yet. :roll:

Put me down for one to support the development and I'll hope to either improve my technique or find someone to help sort it. ;)

It's a good way to polish your soldering skills. Mine was pretty shaky when I started the ALPHA, it has come on a long way since then but I still make a mess now and again (especially with this lead free solder) :oops:

There will be plenty of help on this forum when the madness starts on this board :)

Icky, maybe you should deep six the no-lead solder, I'll send you some premium leaded solder, and we can then refer to you as Neaty!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Of course you would need a new Caricature. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Hey maybe we could start a black market in leaded solder!!! :) :) :)

Thats an idea PaulJ. Now you have a project :)

Is there an American equivalent of Del boy?

BUT may be I am hiding my really bad soldering behind the lead free stuff :roll:

On the other hand if my soldering improves my Caricature would have to be (see if anyone gets the reference):

Is that Mr Ben?
