Both of them use a piece of wire and, in a way, extend the reach of your soldering iron’s tip. Copper wire would work better because of superior thermal conductivity, but other types of solid ...

[Tom] doesn’t much like breadboarding. He prefers to wire up prototypes with perfboard and solder point-to-point with enameled magnet wire. That may sound troublesome to some of you, but [Tom ...

However, it's toxic and bad for the environment. Many solders contain a rosin core, which aids in cleaning the wires you're ...

The image below shows the manual soldering of a stripped wire. The iron (right) heats the solder wire (top) to join the wire to a surface or another wire; in this case the stripped wire is being ...

By applying heat and solder, you can fuse together conductive metal elements (such as wires) to create durable, permanent connections. Hobbyist soldering iron users might be interested in building ...
