@benny unless your soldering iron is subpar, soldering doesn't require talent, just practice and spare parts
you'll know your skills have improved after getting solder burns, magic cloud of smoke, and other fun achievements

@tobozo i have also thinking about that the soldering iron is not good. It was a 20€ Amazon purchase. But with 4,8 Stars (5000 ratings)
@benny Velleman soldering stations are quite good
I have this one, nothing to complain about
@tobozo thanks for the recommendation. Unfortunately I don’t have the space for a soldering station at home I need something compact which I can store in my furniture
@benny a portable soldering iron maybe? it fits in a tiny box and has better temperature controls than a generic soldering iron
the battery autonomy isn't great though, so it's preferable to pick a model that also works in wired mode, or pick two units
@tobozo I have bought this one:

I have used it for the first time yesterday
@benny looks good enough to practice
@benny Talent come from practice! Keep trying, maybe with cheaper components :-)
