In the factory we normally used 1/2" rubber mats (mildly conductive of course). There are few boards that will be damaged if placed directly on the mat. For those we used Panavise fixtures. Google will show many kinds.

It worked, but in the course of doing the job it was annoying to contend with the circuit board skittering across my work surface. Now I have another KIO3 to repair, and I'd like to avoid the hassle. What do you folks use to hold a circuit board in place flat on your work surface? -- 73, Pete N4ZR The World Contest Station Database, updated daily at www.conteststations.com The Reverse Beacon Network at http://reversebeacon.net, blog at reversebeacon.blogspot.com, spots at telnet.reversebeacon.net, port 7000 ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
