SNESp Worklog

[Oretoise]

Attempting a SNESp out of a mini-SNES and a slightly broken PS1 screen.

So far, I've rewired the capacitors on the back of the board.

I've also started on desoldering the cartridge slot. I'm still having trouble with several of the pins not wanting to give up their solder? Any tips?

Will be going to RadioShack in a bit to pick up some soldering equipment (new solder, desoldering braid/wick, and probably a new tip for my iron).

That soldering makes my eyes hurt. Try practicing on some stuff you have lying around, or your sure to short something.

this, and get a better quality solder.

Yeah I know. It works though. I also bought some rosin-core solder today as I did that a few days ago.

Excuse the phone pics. I can provide better ones if you guys want clearer ones.
