SMD collection books/binders

[Nick]

i bought the same but honestly it is still brand new. i prefer simply to scavenge out components from old unfixable boards

I think that simply having a shit load of boards saves a lot of time. The human pick and place.... Or as Louis calls it "Monkey see, Monkey do".
Looking at the correct values on the schem and then looking through a book of SMT components to find that value and package is looong.

Thanks guys, I'll wait until I've got more board repair experience and see if I still want something like this.
