Im not really sure what section this falls under,, figure this is as good as any. I thought this was kind of cool. Has anyone tried one of these?

I used something similar to close the L1 bridges on one of my AMD processer and it worked. I don't know about making long traces but for little stuff it should work. Good find, I might pick some up and see what it's like.

I have that exact pen in my desk. Its ok for patching traces as long as they aren't too small. Don't expect to just keep it around and use it when you want it, once its open you have a couple of days to use it before it starts drying out and getting cruddy, which makes it hard to use.

wow! Any of you geniuses think that might work to fix the classic lifted FET solder pad on an MR-02 pcb?

Maybe, can't solder to it, and I doubt its capacity to carry a significant amount of current. You'd be better off with some wirewrap wire to patch it.
