But you probably don't want to make it so permanent that you can't re-use the Node MCU micro-controller. To that end, we can solder the circuit, and some pin headers, onto a universal board and then use the headers to attach the full soldered circuit to the micro-controller. This "makeshift shield" can then be added to, and removed from, the micro-controller easily. ![Adding Headers](documentation/shield-start.jpg "Adding Headers") -Position the headers on the universal breadboard (as above) and check that this intended position will allow you attach the headers to your micro-controller.
