I severed the a lead on my A-T OC9 MLII shortly after I got it. Had to attempt the repair sans microscope, loupe or even a magnifying glass!
Whilst mounting it for the first time, my tweezers that I use for connecting the cart leads slipped and made a bee-line right for a magnet, and in turn sliced a lead.
Since the cart was new, I was not about to box it back up and wait for a replacement or repair. Out came the 25 Watt Weller pencil!
Luckily, just like today, I had stead hands! I The operation was a success!
I'm sooo I now work in a lab with all the magnification tools one could need for soldering... Whew!!!
