A Secret Santa Vectrex present from Nathan Hulett. It is a playable game as well, and a pretty neat one at that. I did not show the game play since it's quite short, and you'll likely want to figure it out and experience it for yourself.
Tools:
1. The trinocular microscope is the same one Scotty from Strange Parts uses. Check out his video and description for a link to buy. If you happen to be in Shenzhen, I can hook you up with Sue May like Scotty did for me, and you can pick one up directly in the SEG Electronics Building. It will fit most likely in your overhead carry on! youtube.com/watch?v=MBFyGzrClsI
2. Kimtech kimwipes
3. 91% isopropyl alcohol and go crazy with the 99% tech grade stuff for the final wipe.
4. Solder - Kester SN63PB37 0.015" - My exact part# is 24-6337-2611 but you can't get it anymore, it's $$$$ neobits.com/kester_solder_24_6337_2611_bx_kester_lead_solder_p12396973.html but you can use this part # instead which is the same thing: 24-6337-0007
5. Flux is Chipquik SMD291 digikey.com/product-detail/en/chip-quik-inc/SMD291/SMD291-ND/355201
6. Soldering Iron Hakko FX951 and Tips:
- T15-JL02 bent hook conical tip has 0.2mm radius tip
- T15-D16 narrow chisel tip is 1.6m wide
- T12-BCM2 hoof/drag soldering tip is 2mm wide
