Been trying to solder components onto the PCB board. Tried at first with no flux, as I didn’t have any. It doesn’t work so well work no flux. So I purchased some from screwfix yesterday and now the job is a doddle.

I drilled all the holes into the PCB board last night, using a regular sized cordless drill and my tiny drill bits. I held both items, one in each hand and was able to drill all the holes without much trouble.

Had a lovely weekend away, we took a weekend for ourselves and did just what ever took our fancy. Also stopped in at Kwikfit, to get the exhaust re-hung on some new exhaust mounts. Four new mounts and fitting only came to £35. I was pretty pleased with that.
