Robert has an electronics project to design and build before he finishes his degree, do we "know a good quality soldering kit between $50 and $75?" And could we do a tutorial? Sure! Check out the Soldering Your Own Headphone Amp episode of Systm for an excellent tutorial from David Calkins. SparkFun's Soldering Basics are great, too.

For kits, consider Make Magazine's Deluxe Make: Electronics Toolkit (Patrick loves the PanaVise!) or SparkFun's less spendy Tool Kit Intermediate. Want to spend even less to get yourself soldering? Check out the list we put together from SparkFun.com in the video!
