**For those who make their own PCB’s:**

Tinning the PCB is (IMO) necessary to facilitate good soldering. In the past, I forked-out lot’s on money for “Liquid-Tin” product (verrrry expensive stuff these days). If you’ve bought some, you know what I mean!

I came across this [youtube video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hsw3lOnHaas) that shows homemade tinning solution. I tried it and, Wow!😀

I was so pleased with the results that I posted the following comment (as a Reply to the above link) and post it here (with screenshot) for other Fritzing geeks…
