Desoldering, Mill-Maxing, And Why You Might Want To Learn Both
Thanks to StoryboardTech’s fantastic article, you finally learned how to solder! Or at least, you’re committed to learning. So, what’s next? Well, if you’re brave enough, why not learn how to desolder as well? And when you feel confident with that, how about Mill-Max? You don’t necessarily have to know or learn how to solder before learning how to desolder or Mill-max, but in my opinion, getting comfortable with soldering is a great step towards learning how to do the other two, and if you know how to solder, you can practice desoldering and mill-maxing to your heart’s content since you’ll already have the tools from learning how to solder! Well, at least most of the tools. Let’s start off with the good ol’ disclaimer section first, however. Disclaimer These are my own opinions and my own thoughts, and if I’ve learned anything in life, it’s that we all do things in slightly different ways.

This is Carter from CM. I know a lot of mishaps have taken place and we are doing everything in our power to get this straightened out for you. I spoke with Andrew today and let him know I will be flying out to Taiwan this week to personally work out arrangements regarding the key testers and whatever we can do to speed up the process will be done.
Our logistical nightmare has been troubling for all and I want to personally apologize to each and everyone of you affected. Currently we still have the schedule landing 3.15. The port congestion while labeled in the news as "Settled and Fixed" is far from it. Its still a 6 month process to clear out on hand inventory. Note that we are all in the same "boat" when it comes to trying to understand the current port situation. To give you an idea, Walmart is still waiting on 2 containers that were meant for Halloween.
I will personally review the container schedule again with my Logistics team 9AM PST tomorrow morning and provide hopefully an even clearer update.
Massdrop and CM only want to provide the best for this wonderful community. Please understand this was never something either party ever thought possible.
