POLL: Do you own a soldering iron.

[Raxe]

Yes, not much good with it though.

Can't live without the Pyropen.

[James Crivellone]

whats a soldering iron? I put wire and solder in the microwave to fuse them together

[Massive Lee]

I blew a resistance when tuning the DC offset on my Yamaha P2200 yesterday. The screwdriver slipped...



Will need to remove a few other components and check if they still read good. I just purchased a spare P2200 for parts anyway. I shall have three of them. Hopefully all working, one day. Those suckers are 30 years old and still running very strong. 230wpc of high fidelity.

I used to own an E28, Ecu saw the soldering on the multiple times. Also did the LED upgrade to my e30 OBC. :)

point of this poll?

Market research would be my guess. What's in the works, g.g.?

[u3b3rg33k]

I have a few. At last count, A 200W gun, a 100/120W gun, a weller jr, and a 25w pen. I'm sure there are more, and I have a few external heat soldering devices as well. They old. Real old.

My favorite is phos-copper though. Solder joints < solid copper (N/A to circuitry, i know, I know)

[AwakenNoMore]

Only used a soldering iron for wiring guitars, that's about the extent of my skills.

[mikeedler]

[dkbmxer002]

no but i really need an affordable one that isn't junk. suggestions?

[E30Eric]

Yea some fancey ones since used to install mod chips and fix big tv's from CL when I was bored, now I just use it for E30 joy. Also I run MegaSquirt, if you own MS and have not used or own a soldering iron that is just wrong on so many levels...
