Yes, I totally agree. One of the best vendors in the hobby.

Just ordered some more.
I love these things. Great concept and implementation. Quality is great.

I'm organizing an Eggtimer build jam at one of our upcoming CMASS club meetings.View attachment 398856
What is the purpose of the variable heat?
So the eggtimer instructions are pretty good but am wondering if there are any recommended videos on YouTube somewhere that are like “how to solder” that would be applicable to these units. I do better with videos and it looks like there are dozens on YT but just wondering what y’all recommend.

Extra parts is a great suggestion.We did this last year with NRVR and had a blast. If you have a projector in the room and a chance to hook up an inexpensive endocam, have one of the experienced e-people show off their technique as they go. You might also want to bring some extra supplies for the new assemblers (dixie cups for parts, foil for improvised static mats).
TX's for $50, Quantums for 30 and Quarks for 15 - Electronics are back on the menu boys!!
I picked up this Christmas Tree to practice on before working on my Quark and Eggfinder Mini.

...If you've never soldered, the tree is a good starting point, but you might also want to tackle the practice project previously recommended before moving on to the Quark/Mini:

I was thinking about getting one of those too. I have only soldered various bits to wires and not very much on a PCB. I might pick up another Quark or two as a practice board too. At least that way if it works, I have an altimeter to use instead of just flashing lights.
