Bead Formation

It is important to first build up a well-formed bead on each dot as shown above. This is done by laying rosin-core solder wire across each dot, firmly applying the iron for one second, then simultaneously lifting both wire and iron (shown below). If the first attempt fails, simply repeat this procedure, making certain to use enough flux . Feeding a cored solder into the joint area during heat application will increase the available flux.
