 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. 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.
  
-The kit consists of a PCB, pin, clip, batter holder, battery, two resistors, and two LEDs. There is through-hole as well as surface mount soldering involved.+Participants learn through-hole and surface mount soldering.
  
 +**Pre-Event setup:**
  
-Blog Posts:+  - 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
