DIY Arduino Soldering Station

DESCRIPTION

In this project I will show you how to create an Arduino based soldering station for a standard JBC soldering iron. During the build I will talk about thermocouples, AC power control and zero point detection. Let's get started!

Description:

The video gives you all the basic information you need to build a soldering station. In the next steps though I will present you additional, helpful information.
