Well, this might be an every day job for most of you but for me, it is a first  

After spending hundreds of $$$ having my boards repaired by others or buying new ones, i finally saved 100$ and installed a HV kit on my No Fear's dot matrix controller !

Took me a whole 3 hours but it is working just fine

Had to share... didnt have many fun moments last week...

Congrats!

Just over a year ago I had never used a soldering iron. Now I'm a cap kit master! I'm replacing board transistors for shitz 'n' giggles!

congrat, I am doing a few things myself and it is a good feeling.  I am gearing myself up for more and more DIY as I learn electronics.  That is why it is called a hobby I guess!

Great job, the first time it's a great feeling. When possible it's better to invest 100$ in tooling and learn than pay someone to make it
