[Elecraft] Resistor and capacitor installation

[Chuck Mabbott]

I always had a school eraser with one end split.  I would put the lead of
the component
in the split and as I pulled it out I would twist it also.  This cleaned up
stuff on the 
lead prior to soldering back into the circuit.

I only use "non-GMO enhanced" solder that is free-ranged.

Also, only natural lead & pure tin mined by hand without polluting equipment
is used with rosin (flux) from contented pine trees that have at least one
wild endangered species bird nest in it.
