The description of this video has links to some playlists I've made for Basic Soldering. I also added some links to help you find items that are similar to what I'm using in this video.
These soldering videos have been amazingly helpful. I appreciate that you include important details such as exactly why you want to use flux. Most videos say things like "because it works well with solder" which like saying nothing. I'd love to see a video on soldering iron tips. What are the different styles used for and how to buy quality tips and how to make them last. And what exactly tinning does. Keep up the great work!
just got to the end of this series and I just have to say you've done a wonderful job keeping the necessary info and splitting it up like you did. This was a very helpful watch and I'll be bookmarking it to come back to if I need it
This whole playlist is great. I'm about to embark on my first electronics project, and your videos have been a valuable resource on clueing me in to what about I'm about to get into. I feel equipped to shop around for some basics now. Thanks!
Individual videos for each of these items could be interesting for people looking for a quick info about just a single item while getting every details about it.
One question that your soldering supplies series didn't seem to cover - what is "tinning" the soldering iron tip? Some solder kits include a little bucket of stuff for tinning the tip. Is that necessary or useful?
Tinning is commonly done with just solder (since most solders are 60-100% tin), and AFAIK it serves two purposes. Firstly (done before soldering) - to help transfer heat between the soldering iron and the soldered part. And secondly (when work is finished), as a protective coating for the soldering tip when it's not in use. I think the first purpose was covered in the soldering basics video.
I'm new to your videos and so far I love them. I'm also new to navigating RUclips. Would you mind helping me to find the video you mentioned in this one where you describe more about the Flux please? I see a link to a kind of flux and a video that mentions flux but not a specific video link for what I believe you are saying you have. Sorry my wording is all over the place.

Please dont stop making these types of videos. They are too good
Thanks, I'm glad you like them! It will be a while before I finish my next video, but it's going to be a cool project.
These are so underrated and perfect for someone looking to start out. Thank you very much
