You’re nearly at the end, but the next part is critical and takes a good bit of concentration. If you’re

feeling a bit strained, a break would de9nitely help. Reply to those unread messages or prove

someone wrong in Internet, for example. Mechanical parts are really delicate and will need your full

attention.

* Check pot holes 9rst. If some are too tight, make them bigger with thin tweezers.

exposed vias. Pay special attention when soldering F_ATEN_1, POT_A2 or POT_A1

*POT_A1, POT_A2, and CUTOFF_1 need one of the location lugs to be cut, check silkscreen for details.
