Tell me courses or books or videos to learn how to solder pleasePleasePLEASE I BEG YOU
>>2987287I was going to tell you how, but then I got distracted by that hideous creature in your picture.
>>2987297don't lie you weren't going to
>>2987298I swear I was.. but I just clicked on that picture again... ugh. Just gross.
>>2987297What do you have against men?
>>2987301Fuck that's a man? Ugh I just clicked on it again, god ew.
get an eye surgery, you guys, she is easily one of the most beautiful women in the world
>>2987287I only clicked on this thread because the thumbnail looks like a dog eating its own puke. Anyway, if you want to soldier then join the army.
>>2987287I'm assuming you are talking about for electronics and not just joining wires together or something like that. Also assuming you are in the USA. If so:Get a decent soldering station. Not a 'gun' or just a 'pencil' iron. You want something with a decent stand, temperature control, interchangeable tips, a detectable iron, and the ability to keep a set temp. You don't want to be in the middle of a tricky bit and have the iron cool off because it can't handle being up at temp 100% of the time.Also get a desoldering pump, some desoldering wick, and a spool of solder. An Engineer SS-03 will cover you for a pump but you can hold off of that until you tire of using wick. Don't get shitty solder. Something like Kester is fine.Solder some wires together. Learn how to spot a cold joint and other issues. Learn how to do a Western Union splice.Buy an old Commodore 64. The model like picture related. Make sure it is "broken/sold as is" but isn't missing anything. Fix it. This is almost certainly going to involve desoldering chips from the board and replacing them with sockets. Shit, just buy 8 RAM chips for it and replace them right off. The RAM in those things is notorious for failing. A full set of 8 4164-150s can be had for as little 16 dollars if you know where to look. By the time you replace them all, they only have 128 pins combined, you will be solid.

>>2987287Weld or solder?Get a welder to teach you.
i bought a 50 dollar chicago electric machine and went at a mower deck of a scrap mowerseveral months later I traded a snowmobile trailer I got for free for a lincoln buzz box.The penalty for not having someone teach you is ugly welds at the start. dont be a bitch, just get your hands on a machine and metal.
>>2987287>Where do I learn to weld?DEI University.
Why does everyone want to weld or solder now? It’s like forklifting. When did this get so popular? You’re not gonna make any money; there’s too much competition if you want to start your own business and companies pay basically minimum wage. Flip houses bro.
>>2988158I want to learn as a hobby. In like 4th grade me and my dad got a kit to make a small radio transmitter. It was fun. So it's probably good for other hobbies.
>>2988158I worked in an electronics factory for a short while this year, did soldering pretty much full time. It's fun. Though I got kicked out again because the factory is not competitive with this kind of work in Western Europe and they had to scale down shortly after I got hired.I think I would like welding a bit more too, welding is a skill that can be applied in many DIY projects too. Maybe I'll take that up.
>>2988158If you do manly shit its handy as hell. For example, and can save you a lot of time and money. Welding leaf springs and axle mounts on trailers come to mind. Welding nuts on broken bolts. flip houses bro, i bet you buy new stuff and hate fun and welded diffs so it doesnt matter
>>2988312Oh I LOVE fun and DIY projects, it’s just that my fun and DIY projects may differ greatly from everyone else on here and isn’t blue board material. Pic very much related, if you know what I mean. P.S. Don’t build a weird sex life; it’s very hard to go back. And make sure you get consent forms signed and notarized by an ATTORNEY; safe words, refill the water bowl as agreed, don’t mix drugs into the equation. In other words, safety first.
>>2987287My welds are too strong for you, traveler.
>>2988813Thank you
>>2988158>It’s like forklifting.Any idiot can operate a forklift, I've been an industrial electrician for 35 years and use a forklift at work most days of the week.They aren't some hallowed "trade", far from it and most of the actual forkies I've ever met have been as dumb as a bag of hammers.
>>2988531safety third, fun and teamwork first and secondgod 4chan is full of faggots these days
>>2988989Yes but they make about as much as a welder. At least where I live.
>>2987287>He needs booksNgmi
>>2987297If it wasnt for the wig, tattoos, piercings, manly face or ageing flabby skin, she would be be quite attractive.
>>2987287weldingtipsandtricks yt channel. Then get a cheap mig and some metal and get to it. You are not going to learn by watching/reading only.
