Clive, the cheapie IC sockets are easy to seat. Push them in, flick the opposite corner pins over, THEN solder the OPPOSITE corner pins. If it's seated correctly, then unfold or "unflick" the opposite corner pins and solder them.
Please help! My first project was a bench power supply that I use a lot and is very accurate. I just finished my third clock exactly the same as the one in the video, and nothing. All parts on the last one tested before fitting, solder pads cleaned with a glass scratch brush, solder joints all pretty much perfect, but nothing, zero! Any ideas anyone, Clive? I've got about 6 more kits to build but pretty sure I need to sort this one first….Help!! Please!!
Mr. CLIVE. Please tell me where to find good soldier. I bought 2 full rolls .8mm 60/40 flux but someone lied. I made the 4 big 7 segment clock like you did but the soulder turns gray. I've soldiered for many years but this new no-lead soldier is crap. Please help.
I love rising clamp terminals. They are so, so, so much more functional and easier to use.
"so let's just push buttons."
Please don't get a job at NORAD. 😊
It's only half of the clan of the bombers toolkit

Maybe I should start soldering random eBay kits…
Is "kit type thing" a technical term? 😁

Can x-ray machines damage electronics, when going through customs?
how come the whole thing is 1,79 pounds when the cheapest 7 segment 4 digit display you can get is around 1,5 pounds
Does YouTube really demonetize this as dangerous or whatever they seem to want to decide? I see it as educational, encouraging, and therapeutic.
