My father was a soldier. He was a frogman in the special forces in Denmark before I was born, and always the reality of that inspired me. My mom is very left-wing, classic socialist, and she always talked about the solders as almost crazy, violent, sick people, and I want to confront that because its very judgmental, and I'm not sure it's true.

When I graduated high school, nearly a half-million people subscribed to 'Popular Electronics' magazine. Soldering up some radio or hi-fi amplifier on the basement workbench was not just a personal passion - a lot of young people were doing the same. The magazine expired in 1999 for lack of interest.

American Scientist

Mitch Kapor

Well, I had a lot of help from my father with the soldering and so on, and he was very good at math and was fascinated with computers, and so I was fortunate enough to have a bunch of exposure going all the way back to high school - this was in the 1960s.

My father raised me to build computers, hardware. Literally, as an 8 year old, I had a soldering iron and circuit boards, and this was in neighbourhoods that wouldn't have a whole lot of money or anything. And I figured out ways to just hustle.

A lot of people have said 'people should see you work in the studio,' because a lot of people don't realize I'm an actual engineer. I don't walk in and have some guy grab the board. I have my own studio and soldered every wire in the studio.

Martin Cooper

The only thing that was in my mind when we made that first phone call was, 'Is it going to work?' We had all these parts hand soldered together, engineers standing by with the soldering iron - just in case.

Imre Lakatos

Our empirical criterion for a series of theories is that it should produce new facts. The idea of growth and the concept of empirical character are soldered into one.

Hungarian Philosopher

Dan Farmer

I can write a program that lets you break the copy protection on a music file. But I can't write a program that solders new connections onto a chip for you.

Friendship! Mysterious cement of the soul, Sweet'ner of life, and solder of society.

Scottish Poet

Solder as a noun is mostly used in technical and industrial contexts.

Specialized Use

Despite being used to join metals, solder is not an adhesive like glue; it's a filler metal.

Not Adhesive

Soldering is for making electrical connections, not for bearing loads or heavy weight.

Not for Strength

Soldering as a verb requires skill to avoid damaging components with heat.

Precision Needed

Soldering often involves electrical components and should be done with safety in mind.

Electricity Involved

Solder is different from welding; soldering uses low melting point alloys and doesn't melt the base metals.

Not Welding

 and then transfer it to an etching process -- that's the image on the top right -- and then populate the board using this robot. And so what would normally take him maybe a day or something to solder by hand, he can do in a few minutes using this machine. So he was able to complete the entire order within Gearbox, and this is really important,

 Something doesn't add up. The answer lies in one phenomenal fact. While we've been focusing on this single production line, five others have been happening at the same time. With six conveyor belts moving in unison, there isn't just one carbon that gets soldered to one RuBP chain,
