j. You should have a whole forest of bent leads coming out the solder side of the board. Now
you can turn the board solder-side-up and solder each lead to the board. Use a clamp or
vise if you have one; it makes soldering much easier (16,17).

k. Now clip each lead with your flush cutters at the solder joint (18,19).

l. Before installing any more components on the circuit board, double-check the resistance
values of each of the installed resistors (20). Set your digital multimeter to the “ohms” or
“resistance” setting, and measure across all of the resistors. Compare the measured value to
the listed value in Figure 4 on page 11. Make sure they are all correct (within 1%) before
moving on!
