SchmartSolder are loops of solder produced in just the right diameter to fit over the component leads. One places the solder over the lead and flush to the circuit board and simply touches the soldering iron to the SchmartSolder. The SchmartSolder quickly melts and flows into the hole. The result is a perfect, neatly soldered component with no cold solder joints or other flaws.
SchmartBoard is a different type og circuit prototyping system because it allows you to create small circuit blocks and then connect them together. More info is at: www.schmartboard.com
SchmartBoard makes it simple to hand solder SMT components. Your soldering iron tip should be smaller than the pitch of your component. Your temperature should be around 800 degrees F.

Schmartie Award is a contest for people to design a circuit. Prizes include cash, a soldering iron, oscilliscope, and robots. More details are at www.schmartboard.com
The SchmartClip program asks users of SchmartBoard to make a video where they speak about a circuit they designed using SchmartBoard. They receive a t-shirt and Laptop Bag for their participation. More details are at: www.schmartboard.com
