Or, as I point out in this video, perhaps the correct type of flux!&#10;Flux removes oxide layers, gets contaminants out of the way, and makes for better solder joints. But there are so many different types of flux and even more ways to apply it.<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um0IDWYgfSU"><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Um0IDWYgfSU/hqdefault.jpg" alt="Difference between flux (for soldering)"/></a></p><p><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/Um0IDWYgfSU" title="Difference between flux (for soldering)" width="560" height="315" loading="lazy" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Um0IDWYgfSU">Watch this video on YouTube</a></iframe></p></description></item><item><title>Essential Consumables for Building Circuits | Workbench Wednesdays #31:</title><link>https://www.baldengineer.com/essential-consumables-for-building-circuits-workbench-wednesdays-31.html</link><pubDate>Wed, 18 Nov 2020 22:48:00 +0000</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">https://www.baldengineer.com/?p=8319</guid><description>Obviously, you need solder to build most circuits. However, before and after soldering a circuit, there is a bunch of other stuff. In this Workbench Wednesdays episode, James looks at the solder, flux, wick, and cleaning supplies needed when working with electronics. Make sure your lab is stocked with these must-have consumables.<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taHAoDI6TOs"><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/taHAoDI6TOs/hqdefault.jpg" alt="Essential Consumables for Building Circuits | Workbench Wednesdays #31:"/></a></p><p><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/taHAoDI6TOs" title="Essential Consumables for Building Circuits | Workbench Wednesdays #31:" width="560" height="315" loading="lazy" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taHAoDI6TOs">Watch this video on YouTube</a></iframe></p></description></item></channel></rss>
