It's a shame PK-1 has a 1-day cure time, as I would have loved to see performance using that, given that it's what I use.

Good plan, for a bunch of reasons.

When this is all over you can write us a guide for IX.

Some of us (read: me) are too scurred to reflow it and have a brand new package sitting on the shelf.
