Hello, TechNet: Several years ago I created a "fishbone" cause-effect diagram for the SMT placement and soldering process. It probably needs an update, and I'd appreciate any editorial help on a new version. Some of you might find it useful as-is. Rather than send it as an attachment to the whole mailing list, if you would like a 32K .pdf (you'll need Adobe Acrobat reader) version of the file, send me an email and I'll reply with the attachment. regards, Jerry Cupples Interphase Corporation Dallas, TX USA http://www.iphase.com ################################################################ TechNet E-Mail Forum provided as a free service by IPC using LISTSERV 1.8c ################################################################ To subscribe/unsubscribe, send a message to [log in to unmask] with following text in the body: To subscribe: SUBSCRIBE TechNet <your full name> To unsubscribe: SIGNOFF TechNet ################################################################ Please visit IPC's web site (http://www.ipc.org) "On-Line Services" section for additional information.
