[Noisebridge-discuss] Is there interest in an SMD practice electronics kit?

[Rachel McConnell]

OOh I'd make that.  I've done a little SMD soldering and I'd probably
want to use this to try out a reflow oven.  A while ago there was a
toaster oven at NB intended for making one but I don't know if that
happened, or if the oven is still around.

Timing?  Sometime in September maybe?
