Steve, What a fine example of ........ "Organized Tombstoning", "Pedestal Resistor Array". I wonder how hard it was to get all those little soldiers to stand up like that?

"What's that got to do with anything Steve?" you're probabably pondering now. Well, the point is, if one needs something, one will create it. I'm sure you all have heard the terms; dead-bug, scab resistors, hay-wires, etc. Those are terms mostly heard when you're talking about prototypes. I like prototypes, because you can do just about anything you want with them if you need to...creativity is the only limiting factor. I've seen something new recently, and I don't know what to call it. There obviously was a real need for what you are about to see, so it was made. Go take a look at "What-cha-macallit" at http://www.stevezeva.homestead.com and tell me what YOU would call it. -Steve Gregory- --------------------------------------------------- Technet Mail List provided as a service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8e To unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the BODY (NOT the subject field): SIGNOFF Technet To temporarily halt or (re-start) delivery of Technet send e-mail to [log in to unmask]: SET Technet NOMAIL or (MAIL) To receive ONE mailing per day of all the posts: send e-mail to [log in to unmask]: SET Technet Digest Search the archives of previous posts at: http://listserv.ipc.org/archives Please visit IPC web site http://www.ipc.org/contentpage.asp?Pageid=4.3.16 for additional information, or contact Keach Sasamori at [log in to unmask] or 847-509-9700 ext.5315 -----------------------------------------------------
