Hello.

I’m MapleEngineer. I’m from Eastern Ontario and I’ve been soldering for over 40 years as a hobbyist. My user name is MapleEngineer because I’m an artisan maple syrup maker and design and build my own machinery and industrial controllers.

I, like just about everyone, started out with a pencil iron and a bit of solder in a clear plastic tube.

    Damn. I just put a new jack in my guitar and didn’t take any pictures.

    I’ll definitely contribute when I get another project on my bench

      Awesome! Doing repairs yourself is the bomb. We all need to be self sufficient so that we can replace the jacks on our guitars in a zombie apocalypse.

          I have a long driveway and a clear shot from my daughter’s upstairs window. I’ve told my friends for years that if they plan to bug out to our place to bring food, water, their drugs, 12 ga shotgun shells and to dance up my driveway. Zombies don’t dance and I’m shooting anything that comes up my driveway not dancing.
