SOLDERING ON!
–
Great news from the home front.
A logjam’s opened wide…
‘Though duct tape won’t keep in place
Wires thus applied.
–
Surfaces were dirty
And oily from the dust…
His new iron was slow at first
But hot enough–just!
–
In saving money he scrimped
In quality again…
More power would’ve been easier
To a clear message send.
–
He cleaned the rail as best he could
Without recommended stuff…
GOO GONE did as advertised,
‘Though used off the cuff.
–
Everything sticking,
He pulled one soldered joint free…
Remember to pre-strip your wires:
Satisfaction guaranteed!
