Sledgehammer

This is a sledgehammer. It is used when that stupid case won't open and you've been trying for hours. Comes in different sizes, weights, and colors. A personal favorite.

Also, I felt that the soldering iron felt lonely.

I agree, it's a very useful tool when you need to Widlarize something... :D

If you're gonna use the "Harder reset", I suggest you use this one!!

Good thing I forgot about this one and didn't think of it when I busted the usb hubs and fried the gamepad board I was using before. Otherwise, my GB Pi 2 might not have ended up complete but in pieces. :lol:

Haha, I feel your pain. I pulled out soldered wires the other day that were already glued in and under two other layers of boards and glue (my audio system). Took a couple of hours backtracking to fix.
