Members mumford Posted March 4, 2007 Members Share Posted March 4, 2007 What has helped me most is practice, a decent iron with a pencil tip, and a magnifying light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JDandCoke Posted March 4, 2007 Members Share Posted March 4, 2007 it's an art some people's suck at art not quite true...at least if most people think you suck at art there is probably someone out there that likes it...and you can always just call it creative.if you get soldering wrong then it just doesnt work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Steve Howe Posted March 4, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 4, 2007 Do you wire everything up first and then solder? Like make mechanical connections? Jesus this LPB looks like a giant turd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sgt. Politeness Posted March 4, 2007 Members Share Posted March 4, 2007 it's an art some people's suck at art You can't really suck at art. Everything is art. Art is a reflection of yourself. People may not like what you do but everyone can do art one way or another.But you can suck at soldering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please do not take this personal, but I HATE pencil tips You need a REAL soldering iron... not some cheapo Radio Shack deal or orange Weller with the screw in pencil tip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
