/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Soldering itself (especially the timing) is better demonstrated than described. The main problem is that you only have two hands, one for the iron and one for the solder wire. This means you have to somehow fix the components in place so they don't move while you solder. Take a deep breath then slowly exhale while you melt it. All else is practise. The easiest way to start is to get a kit with a printed circuit board. Ali is your friend in such matters. Repair work often envolves desoldering which a bit more demanding, skill-wise.
