How to a video soldering tutorial
Hello just wanted to let you know I added a new youtube video and tutorial page on Surface Mount Soldering. I hope everyone enjoys!
It covers rework, drag soldering, component placement, flux and a lot of general soldering tips and techniques. If you have wanted to switch from through hole to SMD this video is perfect for you.
An in depth tutorial showing how to solder surface mount parts. Covering the tools, techniques and tips that can really help learn how to properly solder electronics! If you are new to soldering this video should have you soldering SMD components in no time!
With just a bit of pratice it becomes much easier to solder SMD then through hole soldering. As shown in the video the main key is lots of flux, but be sure to properly clean your work once you are finished soldering it.

I hope you add more tutorials and projects, especially some more recent Siri examples, I didn’t know you had control of garage doors with Siri, way cool!
