one tip for soldering...
go to jalan pasar and find one small can of Solder Paste. put it on both the contacts that u wanna solder, and when the hot solder on the iron touches them, the solder will flow smoothly and stick on the contacts. try em, you won't regret it! shouldn't cost more than rm5 per small can. |

QUOTE(nick_drake @ Apr 19 2006, 04:56 PM) thanks! yup that's the right way. the solder paste is not a necessity, but it'll greatly ease your soldering job. the solder will easily flow on the surfaces and stick to the contacts.shall try that. cause i read in forums, that the right way to solder is to touch the solder tip to the hole's copper ring, and touch the solder on the ring, then it'll flow...so must use solder paste to achieve that? or dont have to also can? thx.   QUOTE(chanti-sama @ Apr 19 2006, 06:34 PM) just tell them solder paste and they'll know? no idea about the solder strips, never used em... but i think there will be no problem when you just ask for solder paste.izzit better than the usual solders strips? the thing will look a bit like this...
