Today is the first day of class. My expectations, same for every other class, assumed an easy pace for the students to get comfortable. Amazingly, we started soldering the first day! yay! I had little experience with cheapo soldering irons, so using the school's higher-end soldering iron immediately spoiled my standards. The soldering iron heats up almost instantly and I was able to make intricate solders. Here as you can see, Mason had us solder random pieces of resistors and some other random stuff onto this board. This would've been almost impossible with the soldering iron I have at home.
not only did we get to solder random piece of stuff onto a pcb, but we also get to make friendship bracelets!Again, with the help of an ACTUAL soldering iron, I was able to make this awesome looking bracelet without swearing under my breath.
