Craziest Solder Job Ever

For my Infrared Receiver project, I decided to use 2 seven-segment LED displays (I put the third display there just in case I decide to use it). I first prototyped it on my breadboard, then soldered it together on perf-board.

This display ended up being the hardest solder job I've ever done. Making this ended up taking more than an hour to do.

The seven-segment LED displays I used have common anodes. Each of those anodes are connected to NPN transistors which control which LED display is on.
