I'm going to assign the OpenGauge / MPGuino threads to their own subforum within "Instrumentation". The project deserves the raised profile of its own home, plus it'll make it easier to keep all the threads together.

I still haven't connected my LCD to my duino yet. Fixing a surface mount LCD ribbon slot on a busted ScanGauge is my current soldering job. (Solder with a magnifying glass).

TomO - got any advice for soldering tiny repair wires onto pads that are about .5 mm wide and .25 mm apart? Yikes! Actually I've done most of them already, but I probably did it the hard way....
