As always we're sponsored by PCBWay.com/?from=atomic. They provided the excellent PCBs used in this video.

Well, I messed up, my latest order of PCBs completely. As a famous engineer once said, "I can't defy the laws of physics!".

I'll go into what went wrong and since I've ended up with a bunch of boards that I can't really use I've done a bit of experimenting with a vacuum stencil holder and the MHP30 hotplate. It's pretty fun stuff.

You can pick up the MHP30 here: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Aga3xT

You can watch @UnexpectedMaker show off his vacuum stencil box here: youtu.be/5iX61nD94cg
