You can learn to solder! Anyone can. Soldering is a basic skill for just about all electronics projects. If you've never soldered before, this workshop will give you the confidence to solder in less than two hours. If you want to learn how to solder better, this workshop will show you how. If you have soldered before, this workshop will teach you to solder surface mount parts with confidence. | You can learn to solder! Anyone can.

[http://www.tvbgone.com/cfe_mfaire.php Trippy RGB Waves project], a trippy, fun mood light using Red, Green, and Blue LEDs that has sensors on it to create waves of colors if you put a few of them together (scroll down from the link for more info). For more experienced people I will have a surface mount project (yet TBD -- but it will be fun!). You will be able to take your completed project home with you. If you prefer, feel free to bring your own soldering project. | [http://www.tvbgone.com/cfe_mfaire.php Trippy RGB Waves project], a trippy, fun mood light using Red, Green, and Blue LEDs that has sensors on it to create waves of colors if you put a few of them together (scroll down from the link for more info).

My teaching time is free of charge, but the Trippy RGB Waves kits cost $10 each (which is what they cost me), and the surface mount kits will probably cost about $20 each. Feel free to bring your own soldering project if you prefer (no charge for this). | |||

* [[User:rachel|rachel]] - I also have a technique I worked out for soldering crimping beads to SMD parts to let them be sew-able... happy to show this off if there is interest. Great sadness - unable to come, friend's wedding.
