A little tip: For a strong proper connection you don’t want to add solder to the wire until the wire is hot. When the wire is hot it melts into the wire and bonds to it. If you just drip hot solder onto a cold wire it’s not going to be a good solid connection, witch is basically the whole point in soldering something. You should not have to melt the solder with the tip of the soldering iron or whatever your using, it should melt into the wire once touched to the wire being soldered. Happy soldering folks!
@@axd2312 I don’t believe there is much you could use, especially that you’d have laying around. It would have to be a relatively thin wire or small piece of metal, either way it would need to be something with a very low melting point and something that can bond with copper. The only thing I can think of is lead but I’ve never tried it. Like old lead fishing weights may work but then again if they’re old and dirty they may not because again it has to be able to bond with the wire your trying to solder. I keep a little wire fix kit that I made up in my truck toolbox so I always have a roll of rosen core solder with me. If you solder stuff often like I do, I keep handfuls of different types of solder on hand at home that way I always have the right solder for the job. Or if you just solder wires once in a while and you don’t wanna waste any money maybe just pickup a small roll of rosen core solder from Walmart. They’re only $2 or so last time I checked but it’s enough to solder a handful of wires.
@@axd2312 you could find any old or broken motherboard that has bits of solder, use a screwdriver to remove a small chunk of the solder and use that chunk for your solder, good for a small soldering job
Anybody else come here to kind of waste your day figuring out how to fix a charger or something simple then start thinking you wanna learn how to actually do it legit lol
BAHAHH dude I thought I was the only one, everytime my grand Cherokee has had a issue and I go spend a few thousand at a mechanic I think “ man I really gotta look into mechanics “ then sure enough awhile later I get the flu and my family doctor prescribes me some pills that completely rid me of my symptoms and I think “ man I really gotta look into getting my doctorate in medicine “ 😂😂
Thanks Man, My my keybaord's wire was disconnected to the circuit so I had to solder it But I didn't have a solder, Then I watched this and it worked! Thanks Man!
Great idea. I made a version 2.0 for this using old vape. Any type of vape with atomizer that requires coil. RDA to be exact. Preheating the coil and using it as the substitute for the metal rod you used.
@@slowrunner__9855 And also I have something to tell you I have more subscribers but you turn on your TH-cam channel much earlier in 2020 but you still have zero subscribers I have like four
My point exactly this video is worthless cause you won't get hot enough to solder anything, the soldering wire can be put on relatively not very hot surface and it would melt with ease.
I use a small drill peace not work I use 2 different wire and not work I even heat it with a torch flame thrower it still not melt the sold on my guitar cir board dont work now I'll have to go buy a soldering iron for 3 spots and never use it again
@@JubbLaRacing I did a little bit of soldering with it but then just ordered a soldering tool for eBay lol oh and just incase your wondering it glitches first time so I'd say it went well.
Couldn’t you just wrap the copper wire strands around a tiny balled up, or chunk of solder, then heat it? Like twist some of the wire strands with the opposite wire, and at the same time, wrap them around the chunk of solder, then light it… I wonder if there’s a way to make a bow&drill type of thing that uses friction to heat up the solder? 🤔

Damn thanks!
I was literally trynna drip it like that and couldn't get it to work so I checked the comments 🙏💯
What can i use if u don't have soldering wire?

Yup here to solder a broken wire on a keyfob alarm system
Brilliant, i need this today....i used a wooden peg 5o isolate the heat from lighter, and used the coil from the peg ready made.....cheers.
This is dope. And I love how u said “in the bush” hahaha

Very nice
Pls make a video on this. Hold up.
I was just about to say, If you make a video I'll watch it.
I little careful is a massive understatement.
Excellent man! Great tip :D Thanks for that
Welcome! Hope it bails you out of a jam someday too :)
How long did you heat it up for?
20 to 30 seconds
This helped so much because I’m taking a rc boat motor and putting into a lego car I built and now I can solder it
Very nice quick project.
Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you for saving my life Macgyver.
thank god for youtube this trick just saved my ass thank you for sharing this little tip

Thanks for this video, I used it to strip down my C-1 (the non-USB version) and it is pretty much the same.
whats a C1?
That's pretty awesome
Works like a champ. Cheers Angel
Real nice one!
Thanks!
I love you. The negative terminal on my eskate remote popped off and now you saved me 60$ lol😂😮❤
what kind of metal rod is that? i use a paper clip and its not working.
Same
I like the way u think
Cool idea!!
Thanks!
what kind of tape did you use ?
is it ok to use paper clip ?
It was standard electrical tape and yes, a paperclip works great. Cheers
It isnt working for me
Such a good life skill thanks
Can I use a thick paper clip
You saved my life.Thanl you so so much
Thank you!!! This helped a lot.
Thank you very much. I was thinking "this video deserves a subscribe". But guess what, I'm already subscribed!
i tried to melt solder that was already on a circuit board because i do not have solder but the solder would not melt help please
My point exactly this video is worthless cause you won't get hot enough to solder anything, the soldering wire can be put on relatively not very hot surface and it would melt with ease.
I loooooove it
thank you for this video i don't own a soldering iron but this should do
will it still do without the paste thing?
Impressive and really creative idea!
🤘😎👍
what is the spec of the the soldering wire? thickness and type?
Nice video, thanks for sharing it :)
Putting a popsicle stick between the metal and lighter would be safe to use
Genius😮
very good idea man. I am very satisfied to see this. Great!!!!
awesome bro thank you
My finger gets too hot holding the lighter on. Any tips?
Thanks
This helped a lot
Which is that wire which u melted reply plz.....
Solder
What if there is no soldering wire? Can you suggest what to use?
What are you melting? What do you call that
It is called solder
I want to repair a speaker this will help
Thank you so much!!!
thankyyou i can now fix my guitar
Hi, quick question, I know this is an old video but would try this with a paper clip?
Paperclip works fine
Is the stick in your left hand is iron or metal?
Quick question whats that thing you use with the saudering DIY to sauder
Where do I get this metal rod you are bending
Im curious too
What is the thin metal that melts called?
You mean solder?
Can I use copper??
I use a small drill peace not work I use 2 different wire and not work I even heat it with a torch flame thrower it still not melt the sold on my guitar cir board dont work now I'll have to go buy a soldering iron for 3 spots and never use it again
Where's this bush y'all keep talking about and what's there to solder in it
I know this is dumb but I want to RGH a Xbox 360 but I don't have soldering tools imma attempt it with this trick
@@JubbLaRacing I did a little bit of soldering with it but then just ordered a soldering tool for eBay lol oh and just incase your wondering it glitches first time so I'd say it went well.
Steel wire rool cost
Finally, no i can fix my headphone
Didn't that get hot in your hand?
Nope. The handle end just gets a bit warm. Try it out :)
Thanks for the quick reply. Love these videos. Thumbs up and shared.
need to solder some wires in my ps5 controller, should i try it this way?
Nope
Can you use a paper clip?
Sure
Does copper work ?
i love u bro

Bro until the heat hits the plastic and burns into the gas then we explode
Don't do that
@@MkmeOrg ik lol this video dangerous
Y'all already know I'm not gonna use this for emergencys
its working just for 2 seconds and it's gone
soldering in the bushes. two bushes ago there was a couple having sex
The metal melted through the tape for me lmao
Sufficient power achieved!
These guys do this for a joke. I hear up my wire untill red and not even touch the solder at all
