One of the key skills needed when working with hardware is the ability create good conductive connections between components, which usually means skillfully melting metal for that purpose. Are you good at soldering? Bad at soldering? Never soldered but dream every night about doing so? Well then this is the group for you. We will be having our quarterly soldering workshop to improve soldering skills, make some simple gadgets and hand out. If you have a soldering iron and tools, please bring them. If you have anything you would like to solder or un-solder, please bring those.
