Instead of soldering you will be sawing, glueing, bending, cutting and screwing.

Saw through the middle of one of the connections of the connecting block (a bench-vise is handy). Clean out the sawing dust by blowing in the cut ant glue in the small piece of plastic sheet with (hot melt) glue.

Bend the legs of the transistor as shown. If your transistor has no EBC marking, you can work it out following the picture, knowing the leads should still be in the same order if it is the same type (in other cases check the datasheet). Bend the B(ase) backwards and C(ollector) forwards. Taking in account the dimensions of the connecting block, bend the end of these two legs down again. Cut the E(mitter) slightly longer than the bent down ends of the other legs.

Slide the transistor legs in the connecting block, making sure the B(ase) is in the connection cut through. Screw tight the C(ollector) and E(mitter), making sure the transistor legs take hold. Put in one lead of the resistor with the B(ase) leg of the transistor and screw tight. Bend the resistor well away of the transistor legs and towards the remaining contact, were you attach the resistor's other lead.
