Try Soldering some heavy gauge wire together, thats how i learned to solder.

Another idea would be to take apart something old to De solder the stuff out to find how long it takes for to heat up a wire.

Mistakes will always be part of learning so don't get frustrated.

Just remember to not leave the soldering iron on electronic components too long else they may burn out. (It happened to me before) :rofl:
