Using the parts list above, populate the resistors by pushing them through the holes and bending the
leads outward at an angle to hold them in place. Resistors are not polarized, so they will work in any
direction. Turn the board upside-down to keep the components held in place while you solder.
You’ll use this same technique for most of the other components as well.
If it gets too crowded, just flip the board and solder everything you’ve done so far, then cut the leads
using the wire snippers to make room for more.
If this is your first time soldering, watch tutorial videos on YouTube and make sure you get it down
before you begin. You don’t want to practice or experiment on this board!
Note:
R6 may be either a red 18k resistor or a brown 18.2k resistor depending on availability. In this
position, the 1% difference in value won’t have any impact on the circuit.
