of solder to fill the joint, so if you happen to have a spool of bigger diameter solder, this would be a good place to use it. When you think the connections are good and soldered, snip any excess wire with your wire cutters, and then go ahead and plug the cord into a socket. If you did your job right, the LEDs should blink once and the touch sensor should function. Awesome! You're almost there!
