Figured I would pick up soldiering electronics as a new skill. This is the first thing I created, it works. Any tips or ideas are appreciated!

    I learnt that blu tack or the like is nice to hold stuff in place. It sticks well and is easy to remove. Way easier to adjust than a third hand.

    Also: when a hole is filled with solder but it shouldn’t be: wooden tooth picks and heat to the solder.

    Wider soldering tip: more heat, more stable temperature.
