No questions yet, assembly of my MS2 via timelapse video

Hopefully this is the right place and is ok to post this, as it has to do with assembly I guess.
I recorded the assembly of my first MS2 v3.0 board via webcam, about 6 hours of footage, sped it up to about 4 and a half minutes, and added some ridiculous music,(if you dont enjoy techno hit the mute button :lol: )
For the enjoyment of all who are interested...

This was my first big soldering project, so the soldering form etc. isn't likely the best, but hey I didn't blow anything up the first time I turned it on, so I think I got by ok.

Nicely done. It's hard to tell good soldering from bad when it's sped up that fast, anyway.

I'm impressed with the 6 hours assembly time. I've built a fair few and it takes me much longer. But I don't tend to rush things these days

I should clarify I'm not quite that good :D , it was about six hours of video that I used, but I think it was closer to 8 or 9 before I cut out a lot of the idle video time, spent looking for the right resistor, reading the assembly guide, figuring out where I screwed up, etc.
