Point-to-point wiring order

[Phil_S]

nasa went from full wrap during wire wrap standards to a simple 90 degree turn radius at the point of contact with the terminal.

Yup, that's the L or U I was talking about! I must have seen the NASA document before.

I would have completed the turn and given it squeeze for good measure with my hemostat before soldering. But I will change my ways, if it's good enough for Nasa...

For those that can be interested

Here there is a guide about to solder turret (MIT trainer)

and here a general guide about solder and unsolder
(approximately at minute 50:00 there is the part about how unsolder turret and tag strips)

PTPHW is what I use the most...

A+!

Not to be a semantics nag,

your work is great but not all of that would qualify as ptp.

I fear the dreaded intermittent.

You can still get the intermittent with the Mechanical Joint if you don't have good flow and well-wetted surfaces.

The mechanical strength of solder is real and quite dependable if you have a good solder joint (ie, not disturbed or discontinuous).

Awesome work, but not ptp. Somehow people have a trouble with this, it starts here and then just keeps building simple as that, can't get anymore expository than this:

it really depends on the mechanical joint.

wirewrap is a solderless construction method.
