This week, to go along with the Make: Video Podcast Soldering Tutorial, we present a PDF of Gareth Branwyn’s Street Tech soldering guide with illustrations by Mark Frauenfelder, which was published in Gareth’s book Absolute Beginner’s Guide to Building Robots.

Between the video, Gareth’s guide, and the Primer in Make: Volume 01, there is no excuse for people not to pick up a soldering iron and get busy. The barrier to entry is now so low, that Heathkit is rolling over in its grave for missing out on all the action!

The soldering Primer is required reading and can be found in Make: Volume 01 or digital subscribers can go read it online. – Link
