I recall reading somehere a while ago that absolutely all precision
instruments/tools are fabricated in metric and the only thing that is

is the labels and the specs which are all converted to english.

Everyone seems to be missing my point, which is, all of these things are
designed and fabricated in metric specs. The machine tools are made in
factories to metric specs, but when the but the dials on them or the labels on
them they are converted to english so we sad american masses who just
Yes,
I think we can do simple kits with 1206 parts with home hand tools and
possibly a hold down fixture home made. In fact, that would be a great
kit, a set of SMT sized tools: Needle Nose pliers, light spring tweezer,
hold down device that would sit on desk and exert weight on a 1206
I would *love* to see an SMT version of the KX1. Already, in a number of
places in the current kit, it would seem like an SMT bypass cap would fit
better than the leaded version! And probably no more difficult to
fit/solder in place.
How 'bout an SMT Option on some kits?

For manual SMT parts, 1206 is a workable size: 0.12 in. by 0.06 in.

I dunno Stuart. I think of sneezing and ending up with the parts for my
new all-band Elecraft K-92 scattered all over the shop floor.
Besides, the knobs on my K2 are WAY too small already.
I'm reminded of the segment in Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy in which

Peter,
There are water clean fluxes that might answer your concern. I was thinking
of ones that dissipate with soldering heat, just a dot on land of the
component that was to be the down side.

Good points, especially when it comes to identifying parts. My experience
has been mostly in fixing something. I replace one or two SMDs and I'm done.

Ouch! The stuff that I've see so far has numbers - but really, really,
REALLY small in many cases.

You usually do not get identification marks on chip capacitors, melf/SOD80
diodes or SOT23 parts (transistors etc)
This is what I see as the biggest

Yeah, I'm aware that many (most?) of the numbers I've seen have nothing to
do with any parts I.D. conventions that I know!
