    I tried to hand-solder a Hirose .35-pitch connector onto a custom OSHPark board once. Let’s just say it was a humbling experience. Thanks to a generous friend, I learned the value of solder masks and owning a home reflow oven.

    Respect to whoever can do this sort of thing, but life is too damn short and my eyesight and hands don’t need the abuse.
