Step 6: Assembly 5
Pins
The last of the soldering we will need to do is to get the pin headers in. Find the strip of pins included in the kit and break it into a strip of (3) pins and a strip of (5) pins. Stick them in the only place they will go, with the tips of the pins pointing away from the edge of the board. I am not going to lie to you here, there is just no goo way of holding these guys for soldering. I use a small alligator clip to hold mine when I solder but you may need to get a bit creative here... Do whatever you got to do to hold them and solder them in. --No need to trim the pins after soldering.
