Above is the correct setup for creating a strong
solder joint. Your goal is to heat both the lead
of the part being solder and the solder pad.
Then introduce the solder itself. By heating the
lead and pad correctly the solder will flow
around them to create a strong joint.
Your soldering iron should be set to at least
450F and less than 700F. If your solder iron
does not have a temperature dial no problem!
Just plug it in a go. Hold the tip of the iron to
the lead and pad for about three seconds
before introducing the solder. Don’t worry if
you heat up the board a bit, it is designed to
withstand hot temperatures.
Hold the solder between your forefinger and
thumb about four to six inches from the end.
The solder is going to melt really quickly so you
don’t want your finger to be too close to the
end. Touch the solder to the solder pad. It
should liquify almost instantly and flow into
the joint. Move the solder around a bit to cover
the entire solder pad. You don’t need very
much to create a clean solder joint. It should
only take a few seconds.
Pull the solder away first and then the
soldering iron. Viola! You have just created your
first soldering joint! Your solder joint should
look something like the image below.

03. Technique
GOOD OKAY
A little metal mountain
resembling a hershey kiss.
Fully covered solder pad, you
should see no more gold.
The solder is not fully on the
solder pad. You still see some
gold visible. Give it a another
try. Just reheat the solder joint
and add a little more solder.
A blobby solder joint that is
more spherical. You can use
less solder next time. The
electronics should still work!
BAD
Place the red wire through hole marked with
a square gold pad. Place the blue/black wire
through the circle hole. Red indicates positive
and the other wire is negative.Give yourself a
length of solder, 4 to 6 inches. Then, holding
the solder in one hand and your soldering iron
in the other, use the tip of your iron to heat up
both the exposed wire of the vibration motor
and the gold ring around the hole. Slowly feed
in your solder into this joint until you've made
a solid connection. Viola! One solder joint
complete! Use the sticky back of the vibration
motor to stick it to the board.
04. Step-By-Step
Assembly Instructions
1.
STEP 1: VIBRATION MOTOR
IT IS IMPORT THAT VIBRATION MOTOR IS
PLACED CORRECTLY OR YOUR BUG WILL
NOT TURN ON.
Blue/Black
Wire Red Wire
Vibration motor’s
sticky back
Next is the battery holder. Place the part
in the board such that the small cutout
where the battery will be slid in is above
the bottom striped portion of the board.
Complete all 4 soldering connections
using the same method as Step 1.
2.
STEP 2: BATTERY HOLDER
3.
The longer leg of the LED is the positive lead.
Place the long leds through the square hole and
the short (negative) leg through the circular hole.
Bend the legs back so the LEDs will stay in place
during soldering. Solder each connection. Be
careful to create four unique solder joints. If the
solder between the two joints connects you have
a “short”. Don’t worry if you make a mistake. You
can use a solder sucker to remove the additional
solder and redo the joints.
STEP 2: LEDS
IT IS IMPORT THAT LEDS ARE PLACED
CORRECTLY OR YOUR BUG WILL NOT TURN ON
Next comes the On/Off Switch. This part
can be placed in either way, it is the circuit
board that makes the logic connection to
the bug on and off. Solder all three
connections. Then snip the extra length of
the switch.

5.
STEP 4: ON/OFF SWITCH
Now time for the legs! Unroll the
length of wire and cut it into three
parts. Thread each one through the
top, under the bottom, and back out
the top. It takes a little wiggling to get
it into place. Once you have the wire
placed solder each connection. Then
cut the legs to your desired length.
Make sure all legs make contact with
the table surface when flipped over.
STEP 5: LEGS
BE CAREFUL! COVER THE BOARD WITH
YOUR HAND SO THE BITS DON’T GO
FLYING AND MAKE SURE YOU’RE
WEARING YOUR SAFETY GLASSES.

6.
Turn it on! Slide the battery into place
with the positive (+) side up. Flip the
switch and watch it skitter around. Try
different surfaces. The bug will be the
most active on flat, hard surfaces.
STEP 4: ENJOY!
