Thing I Never Did Before #1: Soldering
by Dennis Mahoney
Used soldering iron
Notable details:
1. Spent years pronouncing the “l” in “solder” when I read it, was embarrassed to learn my error only recently
2. Iron remains hot many minutes after unplugging
3. Blobs of solder difficult to place with precision
4. Enjoyed it, looking for more things to solder
