**Soldering:** If you are new to soldering we recommend the following tutorials:
Soldering Basics (http://www.sparkfun.com/tutorials/106) and Soldering Crash Course from the folks at Sparkfun (http://www.sparkfun.com/tutorials/354).
How to solder from the Curious Inventor: http://store.curiousinventor.com/guides/How_to_Solder

Adafruit has this excellent guide that starts with the tools needed and then shows detailed pictures, including some of the common problems that beginners experience (http://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-guide-excellent-soldering)

**We assume for these assembly instructions that you know the basics of thru-hole soldering. If you don't check out the links above, these boards are very easy to solder - we promise!**

If you'd like to use your Digispark with a breadboard you can cut 6 and 2 pin lengths of male headers (included for Kickstarters and Pre-orders) insert the 6 pin into the corresponding header and the 2 pin into the 5v and GND portion of the 3 pin female header. Flip the Digispark upside down and it should plug into most breadboards with the 5v and GND being connected into the power bus.
