I feel like this needs a snazzy and humorous visio flow chart where all eventual outcomes lead to yes

the right answer is that a number of cities/counties have toxic waste disposal sites for paint, cleaners, lead, etc. that said you could smelt the solder and recast it into bars, slugs, bullets, etc ... probably toxic as all hell, but whatever it's a party

about the only mechanical repairs I won't do are a/c work and tires ... my least favorite is dashboard work, I don't think there's ever been a comfortable position to work from on anything behind or under the dashboard

had a flextone II I bought stupid cheap ... it was indeed stupid cheap and I was glad when it was gone.
I'm also not fond of the blues junior amplifier but I don't condemn Fender as a company for it.

I found myself choosing kicad. first and foremost it is free. It does have more features like keyboard shortcuts and 3-d view. I get that eagle is more popular and I'm not here to say it is better than eagle because if I were already using eagle or another piece of software I'd be inclined to continue to use that rather than learn another program.

you'll want to have the datasheet for the op amp so you can determine the pinout. you don't need anything underneath it to solder it into place. if you're looking to use a socket, you'll have to shorten the legs to use it with a socket.
R10 is a resistor that was included in the rat2 and turbo rat but not originals.

throw in a poorly written cgi script or two, maybe a really cheesy flash/shockwave that requires that I download a plugin ... and if you could make it so that it only renders in IE 5 that would be great
