Hey Patrons,


If you're a new Rockstar Patron, or recently upgraded to Rockstar, your name should now be in the video and blog credits (unless you requested otherwise) and your sticker care packages are on their way. If anyone is missing anything, please don't hesitate to let me know. Thanks so much for being awesome! Blondihacks patrons are the finest of humans.

Hey Quinn. I've used a product called ChipQuik to remove 100 + pin micros. It looks like solder but behaves like lava. It stays molten much longer than solder. I use Kester solder paste (and a microscope!) to resolder parts. It's easier to control the amounts than stick solder. Good luck.

Hey Joe- thanks for the tip! I'll give that a look!

I've also used ChipQuik with great success! Just be sure to carefully clean the pads with fresh solder and lots of flux after (and alcohol to clean off the flux, of course).
