so, eurocircuits supply you PCB, you also make stencil with eurocircuits and you mount all parts? is it hard to apply solder paste over stencil? did you actually tried to use oven yet? looks like a good setup...

 yes i got the T862A, the one with an 800W pre-heater and a 200W
overhead lamp, i can actually see what's going on, keep an eye on the
solder as it melts and poke things with a stick if necessary.

 yeah i saw that, eurocircuits can do them for $EUR 40 which is a hell
of a lot less than $700+ i've previously been quoted.
