JUNE 2013

Dear Electronics Assembly Colleague:

Recently the Rolling Stones came to Chicago. My wife and I really enjoyed the show. While they are beyond their prime, who among us will be able to play an instrument standing (except for C Watts) for 2.5 hours and sing when they are 71 years old?

Look for our presentations at:

BEST BTC Symposium Sept 25th

- Everything BTC with 4 subject matter experts

Ohio SMTA July 11th

- Leadless Device Rework

SMTAI Oct 13-17

- 0.3mm pitch and below reballing process

We are proud to now provide

soldering instruction in the Spanish language.

Francisco, our newest instructor, is a professional who really cares about his students!

All the best,

Signature

Bob Wettermann
