You could put lights on your carriage doors with those. |
| SRBICE |
I could, if I could actually see them to pick them up! 
|
| Teleman |
Its not picking them up which is the problem , Its when they stove pipe when you solder them ! |

Well you did ask !! A drop of super glue works a treet *thinks to himself am i digging a big hole here ?* |

Once, one of my friends put a soldering iron on some dried PVA. It almost caught fire. |

Concrete explodes when it gets hot enough.

And also sets underwater. Where are we going with this thread?

| Teleman |
Stuck ?
|
| poliss |
Superglue?
*Drags thread kicking and screaming back to LED's* |
| Teleman |
Yes , i use it for sticking small surface mount components (SMC) to the board to keep then in the right place while i solder them in because they like to go swimming in the solder if your not careful |
| poliss |
So THAT'S what SMC means!

| Teleman |
Like most things in electronics they all get given abv because us eng's can't spell to well |
| Even older tom |
There are far too many TLAs
|
| Teleman |
Errr whats a TLA ? |
| Even older tom |
Three Letter Acronym. (It's a good one-liner to drop into a conversation in the Pub when the topic is starting to get a bit boring!)

How about this next time you're down the pub. The word beer appears c.1000 in a translation of the Gospel of Luke:
He ne drincð win ne béor (He drinks neither wine nor beer) |
