Yeah JD I have learnt a valuable lesson no excuses but didn't think the melting point of solder was that low but like us said I shouldn't have left it unattended is the bottom line. Didn't take any pics I was too passed off at the yime but I'm sure you can imagine a hundred drops of solder in the bottom of the oven and copper bits everywhere. Maybe no one else is that stupid but I hope someone else might learn from my fuck up.

I got 7 x 1/2" in my 2" RC. Was a bit tight but I wanted to reduce the coolant volume to as low as I could get. Yeah I know we're talking about PCs and not RCs but if 7 is doable than 6 will be easier.
