  • I can't seriously be the only one ever to solder with a bunsen burner and a piece of metal rod ... Or could I ? I like the kit! even if it is indeed an april fools joke.

  • Actually ignore my first post - They may have a chamfered pad, but pads 1 and 3 (on opposite corners) are connected to the crystal element. Rotating the part 180 degrees would have no impact on the connection. Pads 1 and 3 will still be connected.
    P.S. After using these crystals more, they're a great fit in my projects. Great size, and easy to reflow solder.

  • Be careful with these - they are orientation specific, yet the SFE layout for Eagle doesn't have any orientation markings for the chamferred pad on the crystal.

No public wish lists :(
