This is what viewers will see first and click on. | |
| | |
| | |{{ :projecttags.jpg?nolink&400 |}}\\ Find and list tags that are relevant to your project. For example, mine was 'paper' and 'scissors'. |{{ ::projecttoolsused.jpg?nolink&400 |}}\\ Make sure to also list any of the tools used in your project to help users find your project. For example, the main tool in my project was scissors! |{{ :projectfields.jpg?nolink&400 |}}\\ You are required to define what fields of interest your project falls in. For example, mine was 3-D Art. | |
| | |
| | |{{ :behancevisibility.jpg?nolink&400 |}}\\ Finally, make sure your project listing is visible to "Everyone", and you can click publish! Make sure to copy the link to your project to submit if you need to turn your project in for a grade! | |

| Safety | |{{ ::screenshot_2024-09-11_at_9.51.14_am.png?nolink&400 |}}\\ First, open the Behance website on your computer. |{{ ::screenshot_2024-09-11_at_9.51.23_am.png?nolink&400 |}}\\ Click Create Project and select Presentation. |{{ ::screenshot_2024-09-11_at_9.51.29_am.png?nolink&400 |}}\\ Once you have your project open, select a theme on the left side of the toolbar. | |
| Soldering irons and hot air reflow guns get hot! Even if they are unplugged, they can still be hot enough to burn you. Always hold them by their plastic handles and set them on their appropriate stands. | |
| Don't leave a soldering iron or reflow gun unattended. | |
| If you burn yourself, run the burn under cold water for 30 seconds, gently dry, and apply a small amount of burn gel to the affected area and cover with a bandaid (burn gel and bandaids are located in the first aid kit in the kitchen). If you have any questions or the burn seems severe, alert a lab director immediately. | |
| If soldering for prolonged periods of time, use a fume extractor to ventilate solder fumes. | |
| Wash your hands throughly with soap and water after handling leaded solder. | |
| |
| | |{{ ::screenshot_2024-09-11_at_9.51.39_am.png?nolink&400 |}}\\ Then, type out your title page. This can be as detailed as you like. |{{ ::screenshot_2024-09-11_at_9.52.47_am.png?nolink&400 |}}\\ Once you're ready, click on another themed slide and add a slide to your presentation. This will be your description slide that lets the viewer know what your project is. |{{ ::screenshot_2024-09-11_at_9.55.10_am.png?nolink&400 |}}\\ This is my description slide, complete with details of my project, materials, and steps I took when making it. | |
| |
| Guide | |{{ ::screenshot_2024-09-11_at_9.58.07_am.png?nolink&400 |}}\\ Next, duplicate your slide and add progress photos. For me, I had three slides of progress photos. |{{ ::screenshot_2024-09-11_at_10.00.02_am.png?nolink&400 |}} |{{ ::screenshot_2024-09-11_at_10.00.12_am.png?nolink&400 |}}\\ Then, click "Share" at the top right of the webpage and download each slide as a JPEG. You will then insert these images in your Behance project as shown above. | |
| Before turning on the soldering iron, check to make sure you have a fine (pointed) soldering tip on the iron. To change the soldering tip, first make sure the soldering iron is off and completely cool. Unscrew the metal cover and replace the tip. Turn the soldering iron on and allow it to heat up. Adjust the heat to 480 degrees (if necessary). | |
| Use the wire snips to trim a 6” piece of 24 AWG stranded wire. Strip ~1/4“ of insulation off both ends of the wire. Press the soldering tip into the brass sponge several times. | |
| The brass sponge removes oxidation from the tip. Melt ~1” of solder on the tip to tin the tip of the iron. Use the edge of the tip (not the point of the tip) to heat the wire. Then apply solder to the heated wire and let it flow. | |
| The entire exposed wire should be completely tinned with solder. Repeat this with the other end of the wire. Cut a ~3/4” piece of heat shrink tubing and slide it onto the cut wire. Place one end of the wire in the helping hands. Hold the soldering iron in your dominant hand and use your other hand to overlap the other end of the wire. | |
| Run the edge of the soldering iron over the two wires (no additional solder is necessary). When you see the solder flow together, remove the iron and hold for a few seconds while it cools Slide the heat shrink tubing over the solder joint. Turn on the hot air reflow gun and turn up the air flow and temperature to the max settings. Hold the air nozzle ~2” away from the tubing and quickly move it back and forth to apply heat to the tubing. Turn off the hot air reflow gun and place it back on the station (it will begin its cool down process automatically). Test your joint by pulling on it. Make 2 more of these solder loops by repeating this entire process. | |

| Tips | //Tips//\\ |
| If the soldering iron temperatuer screen says “SE” there is a chance that the soldering iron has a broken temperature sensor. Please put a sticky note on the soldering iron and report it to a lab assistant. | * If you are not satisfied with your Behance page, create a powerpoint on Canva, download each slide as a JPEG, and upload each image to the page in Behance. |
| Pull on the solder joint -before- heating the heat shrink to make sure that you have a strong joint. | * Take lots of progress pictures while building your project to ensure good documentation. |
| Remember to let the soldering iron and reflow gun cool down before returning them to the shelves. | * Remember to not get too caught up in messing with your Behance page! After all, it is simply a way to document your progress in CRT. |
