Re: Soldering Irons
I saw the tip in the other thread where you posted a pic. I have looked around and found a solution for ya, gets really hot, heats pretty much instantly, and I believe you can get it with a holster option for quick soldering jobs!!

Re: Soldering Irons
My Uncle was a TV repairman in the 70s & 80s and used one of these, a Weller as I recall. I was fascinated by it. He also bought me my first soldering iron, which I actually still own, though it doesn't get used anymore :)
