Assembly procedure
We'll go step by step, installing the kit components, few though they may be.
This guide assumes that you have had some soldering experience. If not, or it's been a while, you may also want to look at pages 2 and 5-7 of the Bulbdial clock assembly instructions, which go over basic tools and technique. And, if you really are a beginner, there are plenty of good tutorials on line, like this one.
1. The circuit board
Here's what the Googly Eye Shield circuit board looks like:
Starting in the next step, we'll be adding the "stacking" header set to the four outboard header locations, which are those four locations outlined in long black rectangles. Identify those locations on the circuit board. There are two 6-pin locations next to where the "Googly Eye Shield" label is, and two (longer) 8-pin locations on the opposite side of the board.
2. Insert headers
Insert the two 6-pin and 8-pin headers into their respective locations, from the top side of the board.
3. Flip board
Gently-- so as not to bend the actual pins --grip the board by the headers on the bottom side, so that you can turn it upside down without the headers falling out. Flip the board over and rest it on a level surface.
