Toot

I bought one of your Ardutouch board kits (back in August, at Fri3dCamp).

I'm soldering it now and I ran into a problem: 2 legs of the chip socket broke. I don't have spare socket, so my question is:

Can I solder the Atmega 328P directly on the pcb, without the socket?

@LegoPink : I include a socket for the ATmega328 so that you get two chances (which is really nice, especially for beginners). You can solder the ATmega328 directly into place -- but be very careful to place it in the correct orientation before soldering. The little indented half circle at the top of the chip matches the half-circle mark on the board. Please let me know how it goes.
