I can send you one or two of the bc182's if you need.

You're a machine!

I shoot for 1 a day and even then the only way I can achieve that is with my method of keeping numerous projects in different stages of completion. I've mentioned it before but all I do is one day I'll go through and solder a bunch of pcb's/boards, the next day I'll drill enclosures, and then I go through and do offboard wiring on them as I have time. I usually do all of the populating and drilling on the weekends and the builds throughout the week as I have less time.

Gah I think it was $25 for the 2 lb roll (which is tiny but lasts forever). Plus, I like really thin solder. Don't get me started on buying 3pdt and enclosures. Every time I place orders, it's like "aw that ain't so bad" and then I add on the switches and the price triples :facepalm:
