If you want to test your skills in the biggest (well… smallest) challenge of solder training, then this is the kit for you! Experience the true meaning of ‘no mercy’ with these increasingly minute surface mount SMD Challenge Kits!
With various difficulty levels ranging all the way to the aptly named ‘Misery Edition’, you will definitely come out of this experience having learnt a thing or two about surface mount soldering. These challenge disks feature miniature components such as resistors and LEDs, arranged in a order of soldering points over the PCB. If you manage to complete everything correctly, you win – and the LEDs will all light up!
Designed to be an arduous and difficult task, Makers Box created this kit for the biggest soldering masochists. They have posed a challenge to anybody who wants to face the frustration, awarding certificates to anyone who manages to complete this super tricky kit!
