[Elecraft] K2#2032 (shards!)

[K7FD N7SG]

During construction of my third Elecraft kit, I noticed I was seeing more 
'shards' and fine metal bits and pieces showing up. It seems my Radio Shack 
'nippers' were beginning to dull. I bought a new pair and no more problem. 
Apparently I wasn't getting a nice clean snip when clipping leads...

...now the only shards I have are the nice chocolate one's in my Ben and 
Jerry's ice cream!
