2. TOOLS & EQUIPMENT REQUIRED
A few basic tools and equipment are required to assemble this kit. These basic tools are not supplied with the kit.
2.1. Soldering Iron and Lead - We recommend a temperature adjustable soldering iron. DO NOT USE A 100 WATT
SOLDERING GUN. A small to medium-sized soldering tip is required to solder the small parts. You may use Lead-free or
60/40 lead-based solder.
2.2 Cutter - You will need a cutter to cut component leads and wires.
2.3. Solder Sucker Pump - If you made a mistake and need to desolder a component, you’ll need one.
2.4. Multitester - Used for measuring resistance, continuity, and voltages.
2.5. Magnifier & Lamp - I recommend a clean and well-lighted space for your assembly area.
2.6. Other Tools (not required, but nice to have) - Component lead bender, vise, tweezers, wire stripper.
