Surface Mount Electronics Assembly for Terrified Beginners (Day 3)

In this workshop, we will learn to handle the tiniest electronic components, which are used to make modern electronic devices. We will cheat the same way the electronics industry does, and learn the techniques of stencil paste printing and reflow soldering. You will learn a technique that stops your hands from shaking, so you can very very precisely place microscopic parts. We will make an electronic cat that purrs if you handle it correctly. No prior experience or knowledge of anything electronic needed. Caffeine use is not recommended immediately before. All tools are provided. Takes around 2 hours. Sign up on the paper sheet at the Hardware Hacking Area. Costs 20€ if you want to make a board, free to observe.
