I used to save my solder splashes and contents of the solder sucker and melt them together. Got quite heavy but couldn't use it...

- I am using it to make through hole condensor Mic, if Mic has no built-in leads.
- I am using it as a jumper.
- It draws traces on matrix board (if there is no built-in traces),

willen, that sounds cool. what exactly means that traces on matrix board? care to tell more? or is it just connecting multiple pins as one?

he he he I am not doing special one. Lots of time I used to make very rough test circuit on matrix board (has built-in holes without traces) using old components which has short leads (already cut off). So to join them as circuit I used to create add traces using wires.
