To get over my fear of soldering I decided to order the unassembled kit for this open-source trackball mouse instead of the assembled version.

I attempted to solder the sensor last weekend and it went really poorly. I thought I had burned the board and I accidentally soldered two pins together that shouldn’t have been. A few YouTube tutorials later and I’m ready to try again. This time with some solder wick, one of these cleaner things, and solder that’s actually small enough for a circuit board (I had my dad’s plumbing solder 🤦). Wish me luck.
