Not only the Best soldering channel on YouTube, but the neatest joints as well. Always a pleasure to learn from.

Best soldering tutorials on YT (save for those early eighties Pace clips ofc). Keep up the good work.

The first solder joint I did I was under the instruction of my grandfather (repairing my RC car). He looked at the board and said "That's enough solder to weld the Titanic"

To this day, nearly forty years later, I hear that every time I'm soldering; regardless of how neat or messy I am.

Hands down the best I’ve ever seen and really good videos 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Ah, heatshrink on the extra hands alligator clips! Accidentally learned something new here!❤

[kerbalette]

Brilliant video. Very informative and explained well. Never seen such clean soldering

[kennith.]

You make things look so easy. Thank you for the high quality informative video.

[Rasspor]

You make it look like art work. Nice video as always. Thanks for demonstration!!!

If only i saw and understood this video a couple of years ago.. Nice upload and GL to 100k

[andrewgrinn]

very thorough video, I learned a lot. Thank you.

[GEVO]

Getting back to the basics, love it! thanks for another great one.

[netlogicify]

Really enjoy to watch your videos. Can you tell what kind of flux are you using? It seems transparent and liquid. Thank you

[jamesmaxdavissands]

I really learn a lot from you Sir - It is wonderful to meet real mentors even if we can't share a pint

I'm not a fan of conical tips, i prefer the chisel tips. You don't have to angle the soldering handle as much and can get better heat transfer in thigh places. I can be biased, i learned on a Weller WECP with chisel tips. ^^

Nice tutorial on the basics, there are not many of them out there.

I hade a pocket transistor radio that had resistors that were placed on end. So I copied what I saw. I was given a soldering instructional project circuit board. My teacher made me place the resistors flat on the board. He told me all axial lead components were to be placed flat on the board. There is shock and heat considerations when mounting components on circuit boards! So lay them flat! And if shock is a problem then use low temp hot melt glue to stabilize the components from shock.

Thank you so much for sharing these great techniques. I wonder if you have made a video on how to clean soldering tips for those like me who blacken them?

[billk]

Really great information and demonstrating how to apply it. Do you clean the flux off after soldering?

Excellent advice and great videos as always, many thanks. Can you please recommend a reasonably priced, but good quality solder available in England please??? I have bought cheap solder in the past, but it's not too good, but times are hard and I cannot afford to pay £70 to £80 for a roll of solder, so I was wondering if there is a good quality, but not too expensive Solder Brand you could recommend???
Many thanks and keep the videos coming, they are very informative and interesting.
Stay well and keep safe,
Joe

Is you preference using leaded solder, rather than lead free.
