Excellent quality kit that has various surface-mounted components to learn and practice soldering skills. It took me some time to learn, and it withstood repeated soldering on and off to become good enough to attempt a repair on my vintage Macs.A very low price for what you get and really does what I needed. Highly recommend.

SMD is new to me. I have a big project ahead and the practice board allowed me to become more familiar with the process

I bought these components for second time and unfortunately seller sent a damage and used product for me , I was happy with my first time purchased but this time I am disappointed

you will want flux solder with this. it is a waste of time to solder without solder paste/flux. dab a tiny bit on the pads and dip both ends of the component ends/pins in a very small drop of the paste. large solder will not melt on the tip but can be melted closer to the heat element inside the soldering iron. you can drag a solder blob towards the tip of the iron with tweezers. a big blob of solder will take a lot of work to remove so keep it to a minimum. i am in the process of ordering 0.8mm solder to play with. the flux will easily draw the solder to where the paste was instead of the solder trying to blob up and solidify. also, such a time saver placing the components with paste. they dont fly out of your tweezers...they are very small.i could not get connectivity out of any of the components so when i tested the circuits only the connections built into the board would work. maybe dont waste your time testing with a multimeter.

This was my first venture into smd soldering and gave me the practice and confidence to build a digital clock and fm radio kits afterwards.

A good practice kit with a variety of components and sizes. There are lots of 0805 components to practice with and a few big chips too. I appreciate the bare pads that can be use to test continuity once you're done a block of components.

If you have had at least some experience with electronic soldering on larger, traditional through hole components but want to try your hand at SMD, then this is a great way to get started. This is a very high quality kit with a good assortment of different size parts to practice on. And very reasonably priced. For about the price of a movie, you can’t go wrong. And even if you make a few mistakes along the way while you are learning, it doesn’t matter because the kit was never intended to do anything constructive except teach you how to solder SMD joints.Having said that, it DOES offer some useful ways to check the quality of your work. If you hold the board up to a strong light, you can see the circuit trace patterns and use them to make some tests with a volt/ohm meter. For example, on the right side of the board, resistors 1-10 are connected in series and there are a couple of test points near R7 and R8 that you can use to check continuity on all 10 resistors at one time. Other test points connect to more complicated combinations of series and parallel networks and you will have to break out the calculator to figure out what the correct resistance, capacitance, etc. SHOULD be, but this is all stuff you need to know anyway if you ever intend to do troubleshooting on electronic circuits.
