Soldering is similar to welding, but on a scale that's much smaller, safer and less likely to make you cry (like when Guru Brian was building the light bar for the Kaczors' Rock-'n'-Roll Playroom -- see episode.)

It's really not that hard when you get the hang of it, and once you can fuse two wires together, there are all kinds of cool do-it-yourself projects you can do...like Brian's Solar Cell Phone Charger, for instance.
