Overview

Making solid connections between components is an important part of many projects. In the Soldering Challenge, we’re celebrating the skill of soldering. Whether you have perfected a soldering technique or you’ve built a project that involved soldering, we’d like to see it! Jewelry, electronics, metalwork, plumbing… it’s all fair game.

The winner will receive an iPad Mini 2, a soldering station, and an Instructables prize pack (that includes a coveted Instructables T-shirt!).

Good luck, and solder on!
