come to think of it.. many of the soldering injuries reported in this thread involve a part of the body that would normally be covered during the course of a regular day....

I once modded Five XBOXs at once. Different chips, different dashboards and diffrerent LEDs on all. Everyone wanted them today. They all paid extra for rush jobs. I thought I installed evrything correctly. Well the wrong chip was installed in a few , the wrong dash and the wrong LEDS were installed. I had a big mess on my hands. I fixed everything but my soldering looked like crap and I had hot glue everywhere. I then installed the wrong Hard drives in the wrong XBOXs. I made enough money to make a Jeep payment, diapers for my baby, toys for my three year old and was able to buy myself games and take the wife to eat (i even let here super size). The next day the person who wanted just a chip installed asked for a hard drive upgrade. When opening the XBOX it had a 160g drive already installed. I removed it and added the 120 they brought. I looked over what I did the day before and remembered someone does not have a upgraded drive like they wanted. An hour later that person who was missing the large drive calls and says one of the Emulators was not working. He came over I installed his drive (the one I just removed) and he did not even notice. About two weeks later I get three calls asking why some LEDs were different colors. One person wanted all green, one all blue and one all red. Some had all green LEDs and one or two red or blue and vice versa. Never take on to much just for money unless you have time. I offer free repairs on anything I install. These five people have come back to me a few time with minor problems that I have to fix. Never again.

this isn't graphic at all. i was installing my xenium spice modchip and i had all the little gold wires installed and everything. then i put my modchip in and it wouldn't show anything on my tv screen, so i took it apart and put it back together like 3 more times before i threw it at the wall and broke it in a rage of fury. after i got done picking it up i noticed i had the chip in recovery mode.

and i wasn't taking it personally per se, i just hate it when people misunderstand me, wether by their fault or my own (word something wrong, say it with a different tone, etc.). that's called "miscommunication" and miscommunication leads to arguments or possibly more misunderstandings, and arguments and misunderstandings are bad
