Hello,
I am attempting to terminate 12 wires into a 15-pin VGA style connector (from Radio Shack). Unfortunately, I am having an extremely difficult time doing so. Sometimes I'll mess up adjacent connections or inadvertedly short/bridge two pins together. Is there a simpler way? Is there a trick I'm missing? Do I need a finer solder tip, and does one exist?
Thanks in advance for your advice,
Ryan
