Hello,

I would like to know if there is a way to use another "component" for soldering, other than tin or lead. And where can we find tin or lead in wires or small devices that we might have at home?
Thank you.

    Hello
    Um, have you ever soldered with tin??
    It's impossible to recover it from devices, it's found in milligrams and otherwise "small devices that one can have at home." Well, you see, EVERYTHING that is electric has tin, everywhere. Buy tin, it's available in all DIY stores for £2.50

      And replace it with what? Furthermore, I don't see the point, as mentioned above, it can be found for £2.50
      in all DIY stores.

      Yes, but it was in an emergency because I live in the countryside and driving 40 km just for a spool of tin, uh... :/
