3 Easy Steps to Follow When Soldering

When soldering you should always keep in mind these three easy steps to follow:

  1. Preparation - This step pertains to how you must strip the two ends of the wires from their plastic insulation covering and inserting all components into the board.
  2. Tinning - A good practice to follow when soldering is to tin both ends. This just simple means to melt a bit of solder on the tip of the soldering gun then put the solder directly on the contact while you liquify it.
  3. Soldering - In this step you apply the solder to the contacts and melt it by using the soldering iron at a high enough temperature for the type of metal your working with.
