need to buy a soldering iron

[Paul Braun]

If anyone is interested, the surplus shop where I "work" part-time 
has a small quantity of used Metcal SP-200 soldering stations. We 
have the power supplies and handpieces, but no tips. You can get 
them from any OK Tool distributor.

If you're not familiar with them, they are a high-end pro soldering 
station. Excellent unit, uses induction heating. Heat is almost 
instantaneous, tip senses how much to pump out, is static-safe, 
and the tips come in a staggering array of sizes and shapes. 

If you're interested, email me off-list and I can let you know what 
we have.

Thanks.
