Salvaged Solder Helper

Step 7 We're ready to solder

For no money and not much time, we now have an extra set of hands for soldering. What I like about this design is that you can put your meter to the wire ends at the bottom and test the conductivity of what you are working on, or you can connect your DC power and test that the connections are good. Since I didn't feel like cutting my scraps to the same size, I now have a little ledge to rest my resistors on. The important thing to remember about this design is that if it will require a great deal of time or money, it's more worthwhile to buy a proper set.
