[sdiy] Weller WLC100

[Scott Bernardi]

I've had one for about 2.5 years, and I have no complaints.  I use one 
of the skinny .03 conical tips. Buy an extra tip, because it will 
deteriorate over time. My developed a notch in one side. I tried filing 
it and that _really_ hastened the deterioration!
