SMT Soldering Kits for Beginners

Stock up on surface mount soldering kits! These have been designed for people who already have a bit of through-hole soldering experience, and want to learn or practice surface mount soldering. They feature a fun and colorful circuit board with a variety of components. When you're finished, you have a fun ornament that you can wear as a pin or stick to your fridge with a magnet. These projects will typically take 30 mins to 2 hrs depending on experience. Foxy Pride Kits
