Weird science!
Life? Don't talk to me about life.
I underestimated the time it takes to prepare so many chips... I had to remove all excess solder so pins are properly flat underneath and that took a while plus all the chips were covered in flux to varying extents. Overnight soak in acetone made things clean and I could start to actually properly align the pins to allow reflowing. I used an old solder paste stencil for that, pushing pins into the openings to get them perfectly aligned. This took better part of today but I am finally done with all the preparative steps ~
Now I need to figure out how I'm going to actually test the chips... I have the test machine roughly usable but things are far from optimum. I'm not sure I'll get to do any testing today though, I have to actually set up some sound playback capability first 🤣

That is truly a labour of love, I hope the majority are working.
I like the legs of of your desk BTW 😅

Perfect use for spare cases !
Even better if they are working PCs hooked up to a KVM switch !
