The description of this video has links to some playlists I've made for Basic Soldering. I also added some links to help you find items that are similar to what I'm using in this video.

I've been soldering here and there for years, never being good in it though. God, had I these videos 15 years ago that would have saved me such a lot of frustration. Thanks for putting that together!

[HoomanM]

Your videos are amazing, I wanna thank you for your effort and time!

[pl_the_barber]

Thank you for share your knowledge, I am a bigginer

You still have to clean noclean flux, the "noclean" part just means that any residue after it dries won't damage the PCB.

Excellent video for Americans. Other SMT videos are with a thick GB accent, and reference to solder and cleaner that are available only in GB. Not on Amazon.
Your instructions are clear with handy hints.
What guage solder wire do you use?

No clean flux is just my speed. I’m going to order some.

We can also use painters tape if blue tack is not avaliable. I am by far successful in having clean soldered smd ic and parts!

Wow, if only I had subscribed to your channel earlier! Can I ask for your opinion?

I have a mouse, and its micro switch is worn out (I've been using the mouse for more than 5 years), so I'm going to replace the switch. However, when I was removing the original switch by desoldering it, some "copper" on the motherboard got lifted as well.

Is there a way to reattach the copper to the mouse motherboard?

I'm not sure what the term for "copper" on the motherboard is. It's located beneath the soldering iron.

Can a surface mount component be replaced by a component with pins?

[danielchurch]

Any good techniques to fix damaged boards from trying to solder without watching your videos 🤦‍♂️. I was trying to solder a new hdmi port and ruined the pads from getting it too hot trying to desolder.

DIY on soldering an fuel injector harness? Thank you...

How can I keep still a small small cap

[youtuberobbedmeofmyname]

I wish I had seen this before I tried doing a Surface Mount Fuse replacement. I ended up ruining a board completely because I was trying to do it wrong.
