Hi everyone,
1. Please reply off-list
2. I want to teach my daughter how to solder leaded components onto a
circuit board (to start).
3. Where can I get a cheap (really cheap?) source of boards to play on.
Obviously, they do not need to work, can be broken, etc.
Thanks,

Doug,
There are two opportunities here. One is your goal of solder practice.
The other is to find a suitable piece of electronics to take apart to
get the circuit board on which the soldering practice can take place.
The experience of taking something apart for the sake of understanding

Doug,
I would suggest you obtain a piece of perf-board with thru-plated holes
along with a bunch of resistors (1/4 watt are not expensive in lots of 200).
Give her the Soldering Tutorial that is on the Elecraft website.
While practice with boards that have had the components removed can be
They'd have to be ancient.
The PC world has been almost totally SMD for 10 years now.
Looking at an now 8 year old Athlon Thunderbird mobo I have in the
closet,the only parts which aren't SMD are the caps around the socket 7
socket for power supply filtering and the voltage regulators.
