The 

BLEEP DRUM

 

v001 (board 012 code 003)

Thank you for your purchase, fellow noise-maker!

Here are the tools you’ll need to assemble the Bleep Drum:

- Soldering iron

 

Pen type, 35W max with a good tip. Like 

this

. See 

Soldering 101

 for more info. You    

 

will also need something to deal with soldering 

fumes

 and to 

clean

 the soldering iron. 

- Solder

 

20 gauge (.032”) is good for most kits. Large solder should be avoided. Most compo- 

 

nents we use are RoHS. Lead-free solder isn’t necessary but is recommended.

- Cutters

 

Diagonal

 or 

flush

- Small pliers

 

Something like 

these

.

- Screwdrivers

 

Large and 

mini

 flathead.

All Bleep Labs kits can be completed by those who are new to soldering, but it is very important 

that you know how to solder safely before you start. This includes working in a well-ventilated 

area and wearing safety glasses. 

Children should never solder alone and should never handle anything that might contain lead.
