Figure 6 General Tools Required
2.3.2. Specific Tools
I would really suggest you invest in a solder pump (blue syringe in Figure 7) and a
variable temperature soldering iron (Blue soldering iron with dial in Figure 7) for any
work involving Printed Circuit Boards. They are both very cheap items and you'll use
them again and again. Although you can get by without a variable temperature iron, you
must have an iron with a needle/small tip that is suitable for the delicate work of
desoldering and resoldering components. You will not be able to get by without a solder
pump or at the very least some desoldering braid - yes you might get the components off
the board, but you will probably damage them if you're not using a pump. As a pump
costs something like £2 ($3) you'd be a fool to attempt work without one. You will also
probably need a digital multimeter (yellow meter in Figure 7), get one they're also cheap.
