A day later I learn from a page on the Seattle Robotics Society’s web newsletter, Encoder, that I can in fact solder those tiny bug sized IC’s that left me itchy yesterday. In fact I can do it using a toaster oven and a special ordered compound! It looks like a fun experiment, but unfortunately at this point I need to limit the scope of my project, not expand it.
The result looks beautiful (second time I’ve used that adjective today, I know)!

I’ll keep this bookmarked for next time.
