41-221 nightmare
#20

back to your original point.................

every time i see a comment about congested work areas..... i think back to some videos of the philco assembly line. What hits me is the physical size of the darn soldering iron they used to put these things together.

i think i saw where one persons job was to pre twist / connect parts in.... then the next persons job was to solder in place everything that was absent of solder.

i think there must have been two or three stages of this to the point that layer upon layer things eventually get burried to maximize space all these parts take up.
