Ehh the best electronic course is to build something without any tutorials!
(It dosent matter how many times you are going to fail or blow something up!) -
@Gregozor2121 Yep, but I need the basics.... And for the basics is actually good, with simple language. Now a know I little more, and can apply that knowledge to any projects I came up with

Condor323326y@Gregozor2121 I wholeheartedly agree. The hard way is always the best way.. and as far as soldering goes, I started out with a crappy iron but with a good iron and some practice, it's actually quite quick to learn. And it ended up getting me to prefer a certain type of tips too.. started out with those standard conical tips, didn't like them.. screwdriver tips next, didn't like them either.. then I got myself a good iron and some T12 tips, and boy do I love the detail that you can get with a curved thin conical tip like the J02. Either way, practice makes perfect. The technique however I've also learned from others.. mostly Collin Cunningham and GreatScott as I'm more of a visual learner.

I have like 20 different yt channels dedicated to electronics on my subscribtion list.
I have great scott too, but i had stopped likeing him since he made the video about the swiching converter without the microcontroler...
(Yeah because microcontrolers can solve everything...) -
Condor323326y@Gregozor2121 of course, jam in a brainbox and suddenly everything becomes possible 🙃
Well GreatScott! among others I've learned from.. but only recently did I notice some subtle fuckups in their videos that make them seem like they were made while they were still learning as well. IMO EEVblog and AvE are usually pretty good when it comes to accuracy, but for some reason I don't like Dave's high-pitched voice... Afrotechmods is also one that I really like, but he's only got beginner videos in there 😶
But I digress. Soldering.. well I think that it's something that you just need to get that kinda Fingerspitzengefühl for 🤔 can it really be taught? Technique perhaps, but even the best technical understanding of the theory will inevitably still make for some initial apprentice joints, no? -
Condor323326y@GyroGearloose if you're interested in my other subscriptions, do also check out https://gitlab.com/_Floydian/... 🙂 I've published every tech channel that I've subscribed to over there.

@Condor Nice... At least isn't a picture now hehehe Thank you. That gonna take me days If my pa lets me...

@Condor
Soldering can be taught.
You can teach how to do it propely but you cant teach experience.
They have to get it themselves.
(how to do it faster, prettier, solder something corroded, ect) -
@Gregozor2121 agree, my soldering gets a lot easyer with experience... But... You still need to know the basics or you will do it the wrong way in the beginning

@GyroGearloose
Like in some film where the "hacker" or the "terrorist" tries to solder shit by applying solder to the iron and applying that to a joint ...
