Assembly
To complete the assembly, you’ll need:
- A Phillips head screwdriver (#1 or similar size)

If you do not have these tools, you will not be able to complete the assembly process.
We recommend watching this video about soldering prior to starting the soldering work necessary to assemble this kit. It correctly shows how to avoid common issues like cold joints, excessive or not enough solder, and how and when to use flux. We also recommend watching this video about desoldering, which provides additional educational background on the desoldering process.
