06:29 <yorick> gruetzkopf: where did you get access to the vapour phase stuff?

15:30 <Twix> yorick, do you want to do vp yourself? You could do a quick google search for the keyword "galden" or "galden ls 230". But i don't think that you need vp to solder a glasgow board. I did mine last weekend in an pizza oven :)

15:34 <yorick> Twix: I looked at it, but I don't have thousands

15:34 <yorick> Twix: I do have access to a reflow oven

15:35 <yorick> but I've never reflown anything

16:00 <Twix> here in germany you can get small bottles of galden and do the process in an kitchen pot :o

16:00 <Twix> e.g. https://de.beta-layout.com/elektronik-shop/loettechnik-zubehoer/10698-galden-ls-230-500g/

16:42 <whitequark> oh, that's a good price for galden

16:42 <whitequark> people have finally started selling it in reasonable quantities at reasonable cost

16:42 <whitequark> nice to see

16:44 <sorear> was the old amount more or less useful than 3kg of bromine

16:45 <whitequark> iirc there was some website that sold like 50g of it at a time

16:45 <whitequark> for like 50 eur or somesuch

16:45 <whitequark> that's ridiculously expensive for hobby soldering
