    What the heck. From the preview, I thought, it was screwed into the modem and they were maybe soldering a wire under it or whatever, but no, they’re actually just dripping solder on the tip of the screw. How do you even come up with that?

      Maybe they told him to solder something, they didnt have anything so they laughed and added solder to the screw head as they knew they could remove the solder or the screw after if needed. 🤷‍♂️ No harm done and a laugh for the makers

        Yeah, possible. I guess, I’m also worried, because that modem is slanted, that screw doesn’t look like it sits solidly on the surface and now he’s adding weight to the top, plus just generally fumbling around atop that screw.

        It feels like one wrong movement and he’s got a piece of hot metal hurtling towards him…

          I’ve done a good amount of soldering work all the way down to lighting cigarettes with an iron if I forgot a lighter when I went to work. It takes a lot to throw it. It melts at low temp and hardens at low temp. He likely could take his iron off that and swing it around in the air a half a second later and it would be fine. (Unless he smacks them in the face flailing haha)
