make your first 
circuit board
get a kit of electronics to assemble it for free!
Solder is a program by Hack Club, free for teens worldwide! Ends Oct 19.
how this works:
1. Design your PCB!
2. Submit your design!
3. We'll ship your kit!
4. Solder it together!
This is the Solder Kit!
Design your PCB (printed circuit board) around the components in this kit, and when you recieve it, you can assemble it with these parts!
In addition to the kit, we'll also send you a $5 HCB card grant to purchase your PCB, as well as a soldering iron if you don't have one!
It takes around 5h to design your first PCB, from scratch :D

faq
What are the submission requirements?
What could I make?
Here are some ideas:
Can I submit if I've made a PCB before?
Yes! Please note that this program is targeted towards beginners - challenge yourself to make something cool with transitors if you're familiar with electronics!
Can I do Solder more than once?
No :( This includes if you've already done Solder V1 too. There are plenty of other Hack Club hardware projects you could do!
