Adam: I too live in a one-bedroom apartment, where my living room is also my workshop. I have to watch it, however, with the soldering iron. If I put solder burns or holes in the carpet here, I'll be in deep trouble if or when I move (I intend to stay here awhile, but I am talking about unforeseen circumstances which would force me to leave). I ordinarily put newspapers on my kitchen table and on the carpet beneath to catch such things as solder splashes, wire clippings, etc. Been here almost seven years and haven't had one incident yet of solder burns, etc. anywhere on the rug (knock on wood).

1. I keep forgetting that the other 70+% of the US has cable TV. Time to change my tag line.
2. Now that you mentioned no solder burns on the carpet, you do realize you've jinxed this, don't you?
