In bit of a jam

Well not a little one, but a big one. I have soldered all the wires to the contacts on the N64 for the expansion pack relocation. I have put 3 layers of clear nail polish on them, pretty much what Timmeh's looks like mine does. The wires are under an inch long, and this is my problem: When i try to ...

Yes i do have that thermal "glue" stuff, and i'll know if im preforming the expansion pack relocation in 2 hours. On the expansion pack and the regular ram chip there will be an extra piece of metal because they're lower than the other two main big chips. Just sayin

In our school the vending machines can tell if your snack gets stuck so it gives you a second chance. I got a receese (spelling) everyday, and it got stuck 4 times (giving me 4 recesess).
