You'll need some basic tools and equipment for assembling your MAKERbuino:
regular soldering iron (nothing super expensive is required) and some solder
diagonal cutter pliers
regular screwdriver
needle nose pliers
If you're a maker, you probably already have these tools.
If you're a maker-to-be and still don't have these tools, don't worry, we've got you covered. We've prepared a special version of the MAKERbuino kit that comes with required tools included.
Included in the package:
unassembled MAKERbuino kit
128MB SD card loaded with games
USB-TTL programmer board (for connecting your MAKERbuino to a computer and programming it)
diagonal cutter pliers
screwdriver
some solder
needle nose pliers
snazzy USB soldering iron
USB cable for the soldering iron
metallic soldering iron holder
small sponge (for cleaning the soldering iron)
Fun fact: this soldering iron is light, small, and portable and can be plugged in a USB power bank so that you can solder on the go.
