the second revision of the Graphics Gremlin just arrived! time to assemble it.

my solder paste technique is definitely not @GregDavill quality but it'll do.

lots of parts to go

still more. mostly passives now.

ready for baking!

getting baked.

a bit laggy on the reflow profile

ok the solder mask got very discolored. never seen this before, particularly the streaks

got the through-hole parts soldered. also cleaned up a few solder bridges. sadly i could not find the RCA jack in stock anywhere. oh well.

here goes nothing

oh sweet, it totally works!
