Everyone who has ever worked with electronics has some sort of helpful tip or trick to share. For example, it can be the easiest way to identify transistor leads, a custom soldering tool, or the best way to keep parts organized.
Create a Photo Instructable showing a quick electronics tip and trick, and explain a little about why it has been so useful to you.
The electronics tips and tricks that are the most useful, original, and well documented will be eligible to win oscilloscopes! And the person who SUBMITS THE MOST INSTRUCTABLES will receive a DSO Nano V2 handheld Oscilloscope. See the prize page for more details.
