Some insulating tape
You’ll need some sort of adhesive to fixate MAKERbuino’s
speaker to the back side
of the casing.
Our advice: some insulating or similar tape is the best choice here, but a tube of
superglue or a hot glue gun will also do the job. Although, it will not look as tidy as it
could if you’ve used the tape for fixation.
Extra: tools that are not mandatory for
assembling the MAKERbuino but might come in
handy
Here are a few tools that will prove useful if you plan to do some more making after you make your MAKERbuino:
Desoldering vacuum tool (aka. solder sucker)
This tool is useful in cleaning up soldering mistakes but is not 100% necessary for
assembling your MAKERbuino.
If you plan to do some hacking, modding, or any kind of hardware repair or rework in the
future, buying this one is a good idea.
Helping third hand with magnification
This one is also not necessary but w
ill make your life (…and soldering) much easier when it
comes to assembling and/or repairing devices more complicated than the MAKERbuino.
Multimeter
It will prove useful for testing some tricky connections and measuring supply voltage. Besides that, a
good multimeter can help you test resistors, transistors, diodes, capacitors, measure the current and
do all sorts of other useful things.
Solder wick
You can use it along with the desoldering vacuum tool to clean up soldering mistakes.
It will clean the excess solder from the places unreachable with a regular desoldering
vacuum tool.
