SMD Soldering Practice Journey - Part 02

Since today is still the weekend, I decided to fill the second column of the SMD soldering practice kit!

Although I did make a bit of a mistake - the part that I circled got the component the opposite direction!

Unfortunately, as much as I would love to take it off with the hot air blower, it did not come off. I'm starting to think if this is why in the Tamagotchi discord server in which in the repair talk channel, saying that this small part is really hard to take off.

So for this part, I'm leaving it alone and keep the important fact in mind!

Also for this section I pointed out, I wonder if the C-column was supposed to be for SMD Capacitor but I could not find any - the SMD practice kit was bought around a year ago. Also, C11 and C12 feels very different from the others, but since this is just a practice, I'm leaving it here!

This is a bit shorter version of a blog post but I hope you enjoy regardless!
