hey folks. i... i just had my first time. i liked it a lot. and i think i found my true love. bga packages are awesome and easy to solder and reball

I'm not sure I'm quite to BGA levels yet, but thank you for your faith! Perhaps someday. :D

i literally watched one 20 minute tutorial on youtube and got it working the first time. i'm not even that good at soldering and my hands shake
-
I learned a while back that alcohol is literally a performance enhancing drug for soldering tiny things and fixing hand shakiness. The trick is to put down the work after the soldering is done and not apply any power till you've sobered up.

lol. in my case, alcohol only makes me less near-sighted... which is actually a substantial issue with soldering and why I won't get LASIK. i don't get literally any other effects. i don't get dumber or like more aggressive or less shy or anything
-
i mean, i imagine my reaction time slows down enough that i won't attempt to drive obviously, but i have never actually noticed it, not even in first-person shooters
-
Huh. I'd be curious about doing accerometer measured steadiness tests. For me, 3 shots, 30 minutes, is a recipe for "can successfully solder two sizes smaller when using the microscope"
-
Granted, it's probably overmedicating, I'm not a small person, and the effect is only good for a window of 30-60 minutes.
