    Let us keep practicing until we can churn out something as good as Jinn. Rate/hate and debate!

    I just installed this Mayumi V4 on a PU-18. Not the best that I've done, but I've only attempted to make something pleasant looking twice now. The chip looks a little gross because it's been installed about 10 times in other systems.

    Here is my first wireless XenoGC install, I'll never go back to using wires again.

    Woah, you guys are pretty good.
    I think I am decent at soldering, my stuff usually works and is solid enough but it is not that pretty.
    Here is something I did recently. Repaired a super game boy.

    Some very cramped soldering on a Game gear, the picture does not do justice to how small the area is.

    There is definitely a lot more to be done with the wiring in a PS2. That was my first (a PS2) that I actually spent awhile on to look organized as I usually just had rat nests held down with electrical tape though I don't have a picture of it anymore.

    I definitely need to buy one of those "helping hands". I tried something new, I routed one of the wires through the legs of the IC, I think that it turned out okay. I know that my wires need to be less stripped though.

    The importance of a good iron should be stressed here, Xeno GC direct mount is a PITA with a cheap iron, and working in newer stuff requires fast precise heat.
