Title: 50$ Robot Soldering?
Post by: robotboy on March 30, 2008, 05:08:27 PM

Hi I'm Very new to this but i want to build the 50$ Robot and i have a question about when you soldering on the prototyping board as shown herehttp://www.societyofrobots.com/images/sbs_connect1_large.JPG (http://www.societyofrobots.com/images/sbs_connect1_large.JPG)
I don't understand where the solder is supposed to be touching and were its not?
Also when it gets to the point of thishttp://www.societyofrobots.com/images/sbs_connect3_large.JPG (http://www.societyofrobots.com/images/sbs_connect3_large.JPG)
