That sounds  like a very generous gesture on Salvatores part.  I have a hot
air solder station.  Would that be any good to you?

A wee update on the electronics.

I mucked up the board I etched, I was never sure about the quality of it
anyway.

However, Salvatore over at icanbuild.it has kindly sent us a board for free,
http://icanbuild.it/reprap/ramps-1-4-reprap-control-board/.  He has also
thrown in a stepstick board, I don't suppose anyone has the means for reflow
soldering as it uses a QFN package?  These have been shipped so I should
hopefully have them for the meeting on Thursday and I will try my hardest to
get the stepstick soldered somehow so we can test it with the motors that
Keiren has bought.
