Nice article! Glad to see you recommending much of the equipment I have in my own lab. Something I'd highly recommend is the T-962A reflow oven with the modifications from here:

(especially removing the packing tape and replacing it with Kapton tape to avoid fumes!)
This oven has worked really well for me (as long as you don't overload it and leave plenty of space for airflow).
Also, the Sparkfun 303D hot air rework station is pretty damn good:

On the 3D printer, have you actually used the Original Prusa MINI? I'm in the market for a starter 3D printer and I'm looking for a recommendation from someone who's used one in anger.
- em10fan 7y ago> I'm in the market for a starter 3D printer and I'm looking for a recommendation from someone who's used one in anger. I built the Creality Ender 3 Pro. With a few mods it runs very well, and is super cheap (Under £200). Had it for 6+ months. I'm into model steam engines and use it (and a small chinese lathe) for making small parts. Accurate and works well with OctoPrint.
