The two go together like peas and carrots. And, although it is possible to learn about, and build, electronics without needing to pick up a soldering iron, you\u2019ll soon discover that a whole new world is opened with this one simple skill. This class will focus on doing through hole soldering.If you want to be able to build along in the workshop, 2 variations of kits are available from the Electronics Shop and can be purchased when registering for the workshop. Both kits will include all consumable materials with the difference being if it includes a soldering iron. The &#8220;materials only kit&#8221; is $11.45 and the &#8220;materials with soldering iron kit&#8221; is $67.35.
