@Felthry I like aluminum.
Definitely not great electrically tho. And the oxide layer is a mixed blessing.
@starkatt i don't think the zinc fumes are really that likely to happen but anything working with zinc and high temperatures you need to be careful

@Felthry yeah zinc freaks me out.
@Felthry it's why galvanized steel is my nemesis.
@starkatt I imagine welding it is a lot more dangerous than soldering with it, due to the higher temperatures involved!

@starkatt and that aggressive flux means you need to be absolutely sure you've cleaned off every last bit of flux residue or your board is toast
