Soldering Board and Power Supply

This was a very great way to start of a class. Right of the bat we were practicing soldering with a variety of resistors, electrolytic capacitors, diodes, and ceramic capacitors. We learned the correct way to solder the parts on to the board. We also learned the proper way to strip a set of wires. Not by using our teeth like the funny comic shows, we used a proper tool called a stripper to expose wires.

Here is the placement of how I placed the many resistors on to the board. I did not place the resistors standing up like many people did, I placed all the components laying down like a bunch of lazies.  

This is the back part of the board. You can see the fancy soldering that I did. In this picture you can see how there is connectivity in between my joints.

Finally, this was the last soldering project we did the day. We stripped the wires on  a former phone charger. We exposed the wires on the power supply and soldered together pins on to the wires and then covered it with shrink wrap.
