Me looking at this video remembering how I used to do my thing back in the day with a rustic nail and some players next to a stove. That’s all I needed and Burned my fingers plenty of times but I fixed my old russian devices in Cuba plenty of times like that. So glad that technology and living in the USA has given me such level of comfort that now I don’t have to use the nail and the players anymore. No more burning finger tips either. Great video. Thanks
Wow, that’s actually very smart (minus the risk you were taking). Really puts in perspective how differently some people live their lives outside the US. How has it been lately?
@@Pluto-ek3mh Back when I was in uni (I'm Greek by the way), I used to spend quite some time with one of our professors, helping him on a project. He would surprise me here and there by the way he was thinking outside the box. He would always tell me this: "Never forget you are a descendant of Ulysses".
I think you can benefit from using some additional flux because it appeared that the solder was having a problem sticking to the copper pads on a few of your joints. But otherwise great intro video to soldering and as always keep up the great work.
Oh my gosh, this is exactly what I needed!!!! I been doing soldering wrong all this time, I voted for this!!! I'm glad you got to make it!!! I ruined 2 soldering kits because I didn't know the proper way to use it. It was a hit and miss. Thanks for the video!!! It will help a lot of us out!!!
Thanks for the video. I love your production. Please ignore the haters who talk about constructive criticism. They are more than welcome to go make there own video.
I know a lot of people said to add more flux, and that does help, but your soldering tip needs better care. That’s why you weren’t able to tack on the solder like you should’ve been able to. With that said, I love your video format. Hope the soldering improves and you’re golden 👍🏼
Thanks! I am doing my very first soldering project on an original xbox power circuit just to remove the power capacitor and replace them. Your video helps out alot. Thank you
Thank you very much for helping me with this because there is a lot of jobs that I wanna do but I’m not a great solder person so I want to learn how to be better at it and quicker and this demonstration just help me learn it better thank you
Thanks for sharing this video & information. I ordered the Mesmerizer kit for practice & fun. Received a new soldering iron kit a few days ago. So will be checking it out 😎⚡️
I tried to buy your kit from Amazon, and it says it is sold out and doesn’t know when it will be back in stock? Any idea when I can get one of these kits???
First off, love your content. That being said I can tell you're very new at soldering. The script was perfect, everything you were saying was right on point. However, the actual soldering was very sloppy. I just wish you would have practiced a little more yourself before making a video for your subscribers. The actual video portion of this upload was horrendous. My apologies for the constructive criticism.
This is not constructive criticism because you do provide specific examples of HOW it can be improved or WHY it is sloppy. You are being too vague when you say "just practice more". How does he need to practice it differently to improve? I am not saying you're wrong, but this isn't the helpful constructive comment you intended it to be. You need to be specific.
@Msdcc he needs to practice more. The more you practice, the better you'll get at anything. He doesn't need to practice differently, he just needs to practice more. I don't need to explain why it was sloppy, the videos shows it. Sheesh, criticizing my comment.. don't you have anything better to do?
The mesmerizer kit isnt available anymore. Does anyone have any other suggestions for something simple for someone wanting to start soldering? Any input is appreciated, thanks!

Thanks so much for the Super Thanks! I just saw it and I'm very grateful for your kindness. :)
Thank you for sharing, being afraid of soldering it is a thing that has been keeping me for repairing or modding some systems.
You always find a way to make my day I was just looking to learn this
I was literally just about to buy one of these for the Gameboy Macro, this works out great!
honestly this is helping me with my new job, know its been 2 years but thank you man
First! :) love your content man 🔥 You deserve way more recognition for the work you do 🙃

Thanks a lot Blaine❤

I already know all of this but the video was really Interesting to watch
The video I didn't know I needed. Thanks!
Thank you for this informative video! As I learn to solder, I’m sure I will revisit this video many times. ☺️

Great video. Don’t listen to these trolls. Keep pushing out content.
I'm seeing you everywhere on TH-cam, looks like I have to subscribe

Please go make your own video showing how to properly solder instead of placing your constructive criticism here.

@Falcon-um7vo the video quality is horrendous. Do you not agree? It looks like it was filmed with a cheap USB microscope.
@Falcon-um7vo you are a very strange person.
Solder keeps clumping
3:41 THE WORST SOLDER JOB EVER
love you brotha, appreciate all your videos
another great video as always
Thx so much blaine
This was very helpful !
If anyone needs to learn soldering basics, I'll ALWAYS link them this video
The mesmerizer kit isnt available anymore. Does anyone have any other suggestions for something simple for someone wanting to start soldering? Any input is appreciated, thanks!
thanks
THANK YOU
Anyone know where i can get the mesmerize diy kit in the UK or a very similar item?
Iron temp 380c ,always use flux.
Nice Video! But i have a question. Do i mod my 3ds with my main pc? I just want to know so i wont ruin my main pc
Can you not just de-solder the bridge connection? Instead of using a different tool I've seen people use mesh material?
So buy a 1000 dollars worth of stuff to solder 2 things together. Got it
You the best
Rosin core solder - made in China. Does it have to be?
You sound waaaaay to excitable whilst doing this 😂
The first led 2nd lead was not properly soldered, it look like iron was too cold. This is what my early days were like.
yust one question why didnt you use ic socket ,it will be easier?
@@blainelocklair or 2nd witch u zse or prefer that you line the object under at hide of the pcb and you don't need a capton tape
heyo , ❤ so i watch your ps4 retro arch video you connect ps4 to net how to do that without breaking it ✌👌🖐
@@blainelocklair thx Yes that help
I should have watched this video before started soldering.
