Iron - Tips of the wizard. - Basic soldering.

              Tips Wizard



             Igor Majorov, 1996


Pechatatayut a lot in magazines completions for SPECCY, well, 
there all sorts of schemes, for example, but very few can, it 
can make them myself. 

And it all is that many do not know how the most important - 
soldering. 

Today I popobuyu teach you this, if
desire to have ...

Take a simple soldering iron in hand. To start prepare him for 
work: Sting (the the tip of a soldering iron) should be silver

color. If not, then we take the Needle file and
neatly trimmed it.

Then take the file and attach sting shape: a "paddle" if it is 
necessary to weld two wires, or "needle" or "cone" to work with 
the board, for example. 

Now includes a soldering iron to the network, wait until it 
warms up, and consistently touch tip (dip sting) first to the 
rosin and then to the tin, and so that tin evenly coated it.


After this, wipe the tip of a piece of paralon. Everything. 
Soldering iron ready to use. 


    The next stage - the right rations.

Usually, beginners after the first solder
get something, sealed tin PIECES. Do not be afraid, if you get 
this the same result. Skill comes with experience ... 

For a start try to solder together
two "stranded" wire, of which bulk in
any home.

For a good soldering the wires initially cleared somewhere in 
the 5 mm in length. To do this more often often used sharpened 
cutting tool such as a surgical scalpel,

knife, pliers, or, at worst, acute
scissors ... Carefully, trying not to cut
fingers, remove the insulation from the wire. Nothing, if the 
first time, instead of remove the insulation, you will cut the 
wire completely. Several attempts, and you must succeed. After 
removing the insulation, "Scratch" on bare parts, such as a 
knife. Part should shine stronger.


Thus, wire tipped. Now it should be "zaludit" or "obludit" - 
and so, and say so. 

Take the bare wire and a hot soldering iron not for long press 
it into rosin and then removed.


After that, melt a small piece of soldering tin, once again 
touch the skim through the end of rosin

wire and a little scroll it around
its axis so that the tin evenly
covered the exposed area.

Perform the same operation with the second wire.

Then, imposing the "tinned" wire to each
on the other, touching them with hot soldering iron, dip it in 
resin. 

Everything. Now allot a soldering iron and give the wire to 
cool, in any case is not blowing on them (This affects the 
quality of soldering). 


             That's all business!

To learn how to work with the board, we'll talk with you next 
time.
