 +The Tie Pin "Learn to Solder Kit" was created so that when the Makerspace takes part in events with the public, we can teach people how to solder.
 +
 +Participants learn through-hole and surface mount soldering.
 +
 +**Pre-Event setup:**
 +
 +  - Obtain materials at least 2 weeks in advance
 +  - Clean off two tables in the electronics lab
 +  - Setup 2-4 soldering stations with:
 +   - Two chairs
 +   - Soldering iron
 +   - Iron tip cleaner
 +   - PCB holder
 +   - Helping Hands
 +   - De-soldering braid
 +   - About 1mm diameter rosin core solder
 +   - Solder flux
 +   - Flush cutter
 +
 +**Each pin consists of:**
 +
 +  -     1x circuit board
 +  -     2x 3mm LEDs
 +  -     2x ~200 ohm 1/4 watt resistors
 +  -     1x CR2032 battery
 +  -     1x CR2032 battery holder
 +  -     1x lapel pin
 +  -     1x lapel pin back
 +  -     Small amount of solder
 +  -     Small amount of solder flux
