Day 318, Resistance is something or other

Futile, is that it?  Resistance?

Never mind, that's a digression.

I've finally got around to soldering the resistors onto the mainboard of the Micro Kim.

The delay in starting was due to refining the extractor system.  The nose of the extractor can be seen peeking in at the right.  Rather than having bits of wire poked into the end of the power adaptor to supply the fans I decided to build a proper interface, which included a socket for the power 'in'.  Very hi-tech. (not really)

It isn't at all exciting and there is nothing really to see. 

Therefore the image below is that of some resistors only.  Which is waaay more exciting than the power connector.

The extractor system is very effective and no fumes were detected anywhere else in the house.  My nose was virtually touching the soldering iron while I did this and I barely noticed any fumes there either, so that is a success.

The next components to add will be the diodes and the keypad buttons.

It's like doing a very nearly 3D jigsaw, with extreme heat, and poisonous fumes.  And therefore much more satisfying.

I now need a lie down.
