HOW TO SOLDER

Ever wanted to wield an extremely hot metal point with the precision of an artist and background of an electrical engineer? Then pay attention!

Here we will teach you the basics of through-hole soldering, splicing, and desoldering (because making mistakes is inevitable).

*Xyla's Note: The soldering iron I'm using here is the Hakko FX-888D. I love it, swear by it, and have abused it terribly yet it fights on. Obviously it's a little on the higher end, and the techniques I'm showing work with every and any iron.

**Xyla's Note #2: The dress I'm wearing was custom made and a birthday gift so I have no idea where it came from. Sorry!! Good luck and let me know :) There is a circuit board dress (amongst gear, code, and other nerdy dresses) here: http://www.svahausa.com/product-category/adults/dresses-adults/

**Xyla's Note #3: I make a sarcastic joke about RoHS in the video, but the reality is that unless you are working on military grade applications, you should really use RoHS solder. I always do! Environmental and health regulations exist for a reason! ;)
