In reviewing the K2 manual prior to ordering/building I have noticed that
there are several instructions to install a 'GROUP' of components then
solder and trim the leads. Wouldn't this lead to missed solder connections
or cause a less than perfect soldered joint. I should think like 'THE
TURTLE ' in that slow and steady (one at a time) will get you there with a
lot less chance of an error in assembly.
It kinda depends upon whether you are able to develop a 'soldering rhythm'.
If you CAN do this, it's not difficult to solder in groups... just keep
count of the joints (err... connections) you solder each time and if your
count is off, then you need to find the missed connection.
Of course, there's nothing to keep you from installing and soldering each
component individually... it's up to you.
