Nice.... Been looking at this as a kit after building a Nibble65, how hard was the USB C socket to solder on? That's my one fear of building this kit...

Thanks.

Flux. Use lots of flux. Then just be sure to check your work. Use this if you wanna make the checking easier.

Very nice, coincidentally I’m building SNAP75 from Nullbits as well.. I would say use flux since it helps the solder adhere to the pins more easily! For the small pins you would want to employ drag soldering (i.e. put a bit of solder on the tip of the iron and drag lightly across the tiny pins).

Difficulty wise, I would say similar!
