In this video I re-solder the aviation panel mounts for the stepper drivers which I didn’t do particular well. Between part 13 and this video the process of soldering panel mounts finally clicked and I decided to share the revelations which made this process a lot easier.

These include:
1) Making sure your components are not too cold and you are not soldering in a very cold area.
2) Cleaning the contacts with mentholated spirit.
3) Using a clean soldering iron and the appropriate tip.
4) Using good quality solder which has silver to help bind to stainless steel pins.
5) Hold your pieces down so they don’t move.
6) Make sure you tin (apply a small mount of solder) the opposite end of each surface you are going to join.
