My Dad liked the borkum riff, but it isn't a core scent/memory (I just like saying borkum riff).

Prior to him taking up the pipe--when I was a tyke--he practised electronics. Had a work bench set up in the master bedroom (bless mom), cluttered with soldering irons, meters, tube oscilloscope, and scads of solid-state components, wires and circuits. He taught me how to solder when I was 4.

The smell of rosin smoke and cooked semiconductors sends me way back to that happy place.
