I would use a tiny bit more solder, you want em to look like little Hershey kisses. Looks like you didn't have any flux, it makes it easier.
5 0 ReplyAh ok. I was worried about using to much, guess I over compensated.
No flux, just resin core solder; was contemplating waiting until I get some, but I am nothing if not impatient.
2 0 ReplyI'm an amateur, but I found a jar of flux and laying it on real thick made for much better soldering than rosin core solder. You can never have too much flux! Just wipe off the excess when you're done.

Hold on, hold on... Did you do all the components? I was just looking at the pins. Top of the board looks fantastic.

No, I did not do the top board, just the headers.
Man I wish I could have a first attempt like that.
