Hi, noob question here.
just soldering together my first project; a paia stompbox. Basically my soldering techique is, for example with a resistor, put the wires thru, bend them back, hold the iron against the wire at the joint (one one thousand, two one thousand) then apply solder until the joint is cooled, then clip the wire.
My question is, what components do you want to be careful of frying? I ask because I did the above with a capacitor, and then noticed a black mark at the top.
thanks.
