SOLDERING:

An Introduction

 

This is (hopefully) a detailed tutorial on how to solder correctly...

Anyone can solder, all they need is a little practice and a basic grounding in the theory of the process. It is not difficult, but does require care and attention if you are to achieve satisfactory results. Make sure that you have the right tools for the job and that you have prepared your work area correctly making sure that it is well ventilated and that nobody can accidentally touch the hot soldering iron or any sharp tools. You are then ready to start!

The key factors affecting the quality of a soldered joint are cleanliness, temperature, time and coverage.
