Build and solder your own DYI "plane" kit. You need not have experience in soldering to complete the project.
This "intro to soldering' class is for beginning to intermediate students. We will cover some game related soldering topics and build the plane kits together.
Topics:
- basic soldering info and techniques
- soldering a "learn to solder" test kit
- discussion/demonstration of how to solder batteries for cartridges
- discussion/demonstration of how to solder wires for disc drives (DVD, blu-ray, etc.)
- discussion of JST wires - when to replace instead of soldering
- Q&A
- material may be added or removed based on takeaways from our first two 'learn to solder' classes
If you have previous experience, please share with us so we can cover new material for you if the topics overlap.
