      <div dir="ltr">Thinking about this more, if I had one piece of
        advice to give to teenage me, it would be to buy a proper
        soldering station like a Hakko 936 or similar (used are pretty
        cheap!) with a chisel tip.  If I could go back and do my first
        projects with a station that could actually solder instead of a
        plug straight in the wall radioshack iron I think I would've
        made a lot of progress a lot faster.  I'm sure my soldering was
        bad at the start but a garbage soldering iron was a big
        roadblock and made me think I was never going to learn.</div>
