Tools for a project

hello there!!
first of all I apologise for my disappearing!
after I briefly visited the space during the spring clean the spark reignited!
I’m back with an actual project…
I was wondering what did actually survived after the clean up.
is there still a soldering and de-soldering station? (I know, it’s a stupid question, I’m sure they are still there).
also do we have any small gauge wire that i can use? (I need to solder just a few jumpers… 50 cm or so in total)
I’m making a bespoke sound system!
I’m out of the loop so please forgive me if I tag the wrong people!

Yeah there’s still soldering facilities etc you’ll be fine.

Tell us more!

well i need a sound system with the following features:
digital radio
usb audio port
sd card audio port (maybe)
Bluetooth
aux input (3.5mm jack)
built in in a wooden wall

so my idea is to use an old small tablet to connect to the internet and use the digital radio app, one amplifier module, one bluethoot + usb module
and a bunch of cables, wires and switches!!

Take photos etc. Would be something useful for the website. :smiley:

i will if it does not end up all in smoke!

I’m going to use this

True that.

That looks pretty good; the price is certainly right. 20W/channel - nothing wrong with that. And easy to fit into the wall. Nice.

that im not sure… i still have to get my head around it.

and also how to embed the tablet in the wall

There are third party car mounting for tablets. Which is kinda cool. Maybe you could make something with the space vacuum former. Etc.

space WHAAAAT???
