[Bglug] soldering course

[ted leslie]

The hobby boards would have wire-wrap break out boards. Usually a pin array
interface.
Not sure what you mean by register leads.
If a project board doesn't have a WW break out, then you would have to
stick to soldering, but
designs of these boards don't usually have you soldering on to their traces
and such.
