    @fuck2code thanks for tagging :)
    Well, the vote count says it all :D

    I do see some pads with blobs sticking out though (like that one on the left). This can lead to issues like shorting (e.g. if you use your entire board's leftover free space as a big fat ground plane) or could be a cold joint. Nothing too bad, you see that in Chinese boards all the time, but it's something I generally tend to correct when I'm working on a board, along with pins that stick too far out (again shorting risk, especially if your enclosure is metal). Just little things but yeah :)

    @Robinha
    I did manual soldering on class 3 electronics, so anything like this is more cringe than porn (to me).

    @Parzi use a insulated cable. That bridge will break with minimal vibrations and the metal piece can make a short circuit if it touch something.

    @LuxARTS literally my first solder project

    leads are long and bent due to shit clippers supplied for class
