Soldering metal wire

At least learning to solder is an important skill if you want to do anything with metal wire and make cool things like pretty jewelry (or small sculptures). Soldering is an enjoyable task where you melt a soft metal paste to the wire using the Hong Sheng soldering tools that will allow it cool off and fix both pieces together. You could basically consider it like using glue, only your heat is binding everything together

You need some basic soldering tools to start carrying out your projects. So, first things first — you will require a soldering iron (which is kind of like a hot-pen and heats up to help melt the solder) Followed by solder paste which comes in a roll that you will melt to the wire so it bonds tightly. And lastly a helping hand tool, which is useful because it supports the wire in place during work. Additionally, make sure you wear safety goggles and heat-resistant gloves for soldering to protect yourself.

Mastering the Art of Soldering Metal Wire

Get practice tubes and some extra pieces of wire to try different ways until you have mastered soldering with your basic tools. It gives off many bad fumes that you should not breathe, so the first thing to do is be in a place where there is well-ventilated fresh air. A different aspect to consider would be maintaining the soldering iron away from flammable matters, for example paper or cloth and also preventing accidents

Begin by going ahead and turning on your soldering iron giving it a few minutes to heat up. While it heats up you can gather your other supplies. After that, use your helping hand tool to stabilize the wire as you lay it onto where you want the wired connected and gently press down with a hot soldering iron on top of where it connects. Then, press the solder paste to your wire Personally I hold this on my hot and until it melts and binds the wire together. After it has melted enough, carefully remove the soldering iron and let the liquid cooled. Congratulations! At this point, you just made your very first soldered wire connection!
