Introduction
Breadboard
A breadboard is a solderless for temporary prototype with electronics and test circuit designs.
Most electronic components in electronic circuits can be interconnected by inserting their leads
or terminals into the holes and then making connections through wires where appropriate.
Veroboard
Veroboard is a brand of stripboard, a pre-formed circuit board material of copper strips on an
insulating bonded paperboard
Solder Sucker
DESOLDERING IRON TOOL WITH VACUUM PUMP SOLDER SUCKER. With a vacuum pump and 40
-watts of Heat, this de-soldering iron makes it easy to remove molten solder while keeping one
hand free.
Wire Stripper
A wire stripper is a small, hand-held device used to strip the electrical insulation from electric
wires.
Plier
Pliers are a hand tool used to hold objects firmly, possibly developed from tongs used to handle
hot metal in Bronze Age Europe. They are also useful for bending and compressing a wide range
of materials.
Needle-nose pliers
Needle-nose pliers are both cutting and holding pliers used by artisans, jeweler designers,
electricians, network engineers and other tradesmen to bend, re-position and snip wire.
File
A file is a tool used to remove fine amounts of material from a workpiece. It is common in
woodworking, metalworking, and other similar trade and hobby tasks.
Saw
A saw with a narrow fine-toothed blade set in a frame, used especially for cutting metal.
Screwdriver
A screwdriver is a tool, manual or powered, for screwing and unscrewing (inserting and removing)
screws.
Spanner
A tool with a shaped opening or jaws for gripping and turning a nut or bolt.
Drill Machine
Drilling tools are used to bore holes in a hard material like a wall or wood.
Hammer
A hammer is a tool consisting of a weighted "head" fixed to a long handle that is swung to
deliver an impact to a small area of an object
Screw Gauge
The Screw gauge is an instrument used for measuring the diameter of a thin wire or
the thickness of a sheet of metal.
Magnifying Glass
A magnifying glass is a convex lens that is used to produce a magnified image of an object. The
lens is usually mounted in a frame with a handle
