Soldering and Sewing to Complete Your Project
Learning soldering and sewing techniques to complete a project will provide you with a valuable skillset. This chapter teaches you the basics of soldering to help you to make your circuits more durable and permanent. These skills will help you to take your projects to the next level, from a low-fidelity prototype to a high-fidelity prototype, and ready for wearing.
In this chapter, you will try soldering! We will explore the tools and items we should have, learn some ways to improve our soldering practice, and try a few activities so we can learn this skill. After soldering, we will focus on sewing to make wearables. We will try some activities to put these techniques into practice. Once we have a foundation for soldering, we’ll revisit our project from Chapter 9, Designing and Prototyping Your Own Hyper-Body System. This will provide the practical element as we turn it into a wearable system. Now is the time to take this implementation...
