| - | There are a few tools that are required for assembly. None of these tools are included. If you don't have them, now would be a good time to borrow or purchase them. They are very very handy whenever assembling/fixing/modifying electronic devices! I provide links to buy them, but of course, you should get them whereever is most convenient/inexpensive. Many of these parts are available in a place like Radio Shack or other (higher quality) DIY electronics stores. | ||

| - | | {{http://www.ladyada.net/images/tools/xytronics.jpg}} | **Soldering iron** | One with temperature control and a stand is best. \\ A conical or small 'screwdriver' tip is good, almost all irons come with one of these. \\ A low quality (ahem, $10 model from radioshack) iron may cause more problems than its worth! \\ Do not use a "ColdHeat" soldering iron, they are not suitable for delicate electronics work and can damage the kit ([[http://www.epemag.wimborne.co.uk/cold-soldering2.htm|see here]]) \\ \\ [[http://www.ladyada.net/library/equipt/kits.html#basic|Check out my recommended basic soldering iron and where to buy.]] | | ||
