    There needs to be much more of Colin on TH-cam.

    I heartily recommend the automatic wire strippers. I've saved so much time using them instead of normal ones. I wish I had known about them earlier.

    I love Collins videos. I'm hoping for many many more. They're great because they are informative with an element of comedy.
    thanks Collin, You're the best!

    One thing that can't be emphasized enough, related to the last point about taking care of your tools, NEVER use your (component lead) cutters to cut anything but component leads or really thin wires. I have seen people trying to chew through a nail with them.

    I discovered Collin's videos researching soldering. What an awesome presentation. I just had to share with my friends. Thanks for all these videos. Keep it up.

    Hi Collin, I have a request for a video: Could you do one on demystifying the concept of ground? People usually say "well you can't talk about 5V without specifying relative to "what", and that "what" is ground". However, what does than mean for my actual circuits? What about when my circuit requires +--5V, and is battery powered? What if I don't have a metallic case for my circuit to ground to? Cheers J

    I don't disagree with him. However, I found that some Hartmann alligator forceps (I have also seen them called ear polypas) are very handy in assembling electronics when you drop a tiny screw in a hard to reach place. There are versions of these that can fit through a 1/4 inch hole and grab something up to 1 foot on the other side. Unlike hemostats, only the end opens like a little alligator mouth. They are every bit as handy for small electronics work in the case as they are for performing surgery in the ear.

    The standard type of "helping hand" tool is pretty useless. Best to just buy the lock line type first as they are a thousand times better.

    • @bartz0rt928
      @bartz0rt928 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      +Wankel Motor I don't disagree with you, but they're cheap and better than nothing, so not *completely* useless. Same goes for cheap 10 € soldering irons.

    • @titter3648
      @titter3648 8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Bart Stikkers Well they are just a frustration. They are unstable because of the narrow base so they are tipping over all the time. The movement of the arms are very restricted, the magnifier is more in the way than helping, the joints are loose and if you try to tighten them a little it is easy to bend the flats that is holding the joints together, the alligator clip rotation locking mechanism is useless and sloppy and easy to break, etc.
      I would say that a cheap soldering iron is way better value than cheap helping hands tools.

    • @bartz0rt928
      @bartz0rt928 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's certainly true.

    • @mrjohhhnnnyyy5797
      @mrjohhhnnnyyy5797 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Wankel Motor From my personal experience, it is not useless. For small boards and other little stuff, it works just fine. For large stuff - yeah, it will fail or better to say it will fall :D

    • @Armadurapersonal
      @Armadurapersonal 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I bought a very small clamp on vise on the hardware store and it has been much better than the crappy helping hand. Now I use it only for wires

    I found that electrical tape is also essential. Not as much but there are sometimes you just need to hold something with tape.

    • @pingpong1138
      @pingpong1138 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      ***** That is better. Either way I recommend it and always have some near me.

    Hello Colin as you see to love making music and arduino.
    can you recommend any ic's that are not to complicated to get some interesting sounds out of with or without arduino. Thanks to anyone who answers this.
    Si ... P'S not 555 or 556 ;-)
