A 1989 cover for “Circuits Manufacturing” magazine, illustrating the lead article “Taking the Measure of a Solder Joint”. I did the cartoon drawing in black and white — color was added by the magazine. Parts of the drawing were also used to accompany the article itself.

Am I safe in assuming this is likely the only cartoon of a solder joint in existence?

Ha! You got that right. But admit it — you now know more about a solder joint than you ever wanted to know.

You got really creative with this! I really like it. (I’m actually quite handy with a soldering iron.)
