Brilliant. I don't know why I never thought of transplanting a solder pad myself. Thanks for sharing your trade secrets... I will never fear losing a solder pad again!

[CivilizedWarrior]

Man, thank you so much for making this. I’ve had an old Marshall guitar amp kicking around for years because the ring around one of the input Jack contacts broke off. I never threw it out because I figured there was a way to fix it. Well now I know how, thanks to you, and I’m gonna give it a go tomorrow. Cheers from a new subscriber in New Jersey.

As an amateur i thank you very much i managed to solder my UM300 pedal potentiometers with the wire method you taught me!

[SoulStarLA]

Your videos have helped me out tremendously, but I swear you are a magician and hope my work can one day get to 50% of what you are able to conjure up. Thank you!

I watched this video a while ago, and pulled it up again as reference; thanks. What I really wish for, though, is for someone to manufacture reasonably priced replacement through-hole pads, as the ones available online usually surpass the value of the hardware I'm trying to fix in the first place. It's still great to have several options to mend otherwise perfectly good hardware, though.

All of the methods you've shown are great for vintage and modern electronics. Keeping the board looking nice and neat is the right way to repair a circuit board.
You've got a New Subcriber !

Fantastic. I have a pinball circuit board with missing pads. This was the first video that came up in the search and lucky for me. thanks for a very straightforward method.

[sasines]

This is exactly what I have been looking for! Thanks for sharing your knowledge again! Love your channel.

[mrneds]

So grateful for this- exactly the problem I had to fix! Now I know what pads are and why I’ve had such a problem fixing them in the past. Went with the wire rings. Harder with flux cored solder, but I think it’s worked👍👍👍

Thanks for making this! Trying to create a tape delay guitar rack using a cassette tape player and the contact to the motor fell off on soldering in a potentiometer for speed and pitch control

[pizzagogo]

Is is great but can you please do a repair video demonstrating on if you’ve got a missing barrel? Thanks

[MikeyMack]

Thank you very much for showing me/us how to do a proper fix on pads!

[kattegat]

Chipping off the donut caused physical pain to myself but I couldn't turn away. Rip sacrificial donut.

[CiderPang]

First joint was amazing the way it just flowed in. Nice work.

Thanks for the video, there not enough people taking time to fix broken traces but for an expensive keeb that I broke a barreling on the trace I’m going to try method 2 seems like a great idea
