so far i have a x360 usb pro, and a ck3 lite

i can buy some more tools but nothing to expensive

Alos just take your time dont rush as it could very easily go wrong

Just make sure you get your key and back it up in a safe place even though jungle flasher keeps a record of it

I know this is kind of late, but J2G has a video tutorial on the kamikaze:

also, take it slow, you don't want to end up drilling too deep or it will render the PCB useless

I recommend a soldering iron. I did my first couple with a drill and careful measuring but now I only use a template and soldering iron. Still at 100% success rate. Basically be careful, don't apply pressure and double check before you drill or use the iron. Also be aware that the wire you're going through runs diagonally so angle it along that. Has always worked for me on a couple hundred drives so it should work for you too.

I have to disagree with you there m8
apllying that amount of heat on a chip could cause something to fry, it has been implied many times in the forums that it is very very dangerous to Heat the IC chip by that amount (meaning even 25w) i would stick to the drilling template and the handbit it comes with, although the handbit might take 40-60 min, it is THE SAFEST WAY EVER

BGAmods sells a template and bit for drilling on his site and its a great bit of kit

get a template and small hand drill mate i did loads free hand at the start got good at them but still killed a few then i got the template makes it easier and quicker none dead yet

Just too put my 2p worth in.

I use neither a drill or a soldering iron.

I use RDUBBS guide exactly, but i use the exact point of a stanley knife, turning a quarter turn every 10 seconds, with little pressure. Takes about 3-4 mins, but i know i never go to deep, as i am waiting for the beep during that 10 seconds.

I also do not use a template, as i find that the chips a not generic. Use the pin number system helps greatly as RDubbs guide recommends

 

[Ticallion]

I use a USB microscope to take a close up clear picture of the chip, save the photo, open up in paint, line up exactly the intersect of the top row and right hand row of pins, and then proceed to use a throwing knife (yep you heard right, has a very fine sharp tip) to drill into it. This has highlighted how much the print can vary from chip to chip, so that is not a safe indicator at all to use.

Usually go in fast and hard ( :; ) with an SPI 0x00 in 30 seconds to a minute, not that there is ever any rush, just after doing so many I'm very confident - although I did kill my first pcb in god knows how long about 6 weeks ago, but thats why I always carry a spare.
