At least granite resists soldering iron burns.
My Formica counter tops have had many of solder blobs drop on it :yes:
Got some nice little burn marks.

It's about time you got another decent box Jimmy it's almost been two whole weeks since your bolt box score, we've been getting bored. :-P :lol:
You have some great friends. :thumbsup:

It's shocking how well the volume knob came out, I think you have a good chance of bringing that box most of the way back to it's glory. :yes:
