Articulation preperation

Hey, I was wondering if anyone would write a guide on how to take apart the ip zap along with the wires and also how to put it back together. And also do you think I could use the metal end of a hot glue gun to replace the soldering gun to solder the wires bak together.

Refer to this thread for info about the Articulation Mod (there's a link in there to BitPimps that has a step-by-step guide):

I doubt the hot end of a glue gun gets hot enough for soldering, not to mention it's a bit big and clunky for doing fine soldering work.

Ok, you were right about the hot glue gun. I didn't think it was going to work either so now I need to know how to put a wire back in without soldering. And how to do the articulation without taking out the wires.

Thanks

Ok thanks but I would rather do it this way. Do you think that if I heated up a pin or needle with a candle that it could solder. and I was also wondering if somone could tell me how to put the front and back together properly.

Thanks
