Subject: soldering fumes and general electronics benchwork..

for "fume extraction" I use a little 12v black computer type fan with
a wallwart and switch soldered up.. just blows the fumes away. works
for me and these things are available as surplus everywhere for very
cheap...

I was wondering what everyone does for wire strippers.. I have a few
pairs of the super simple cheap pliers type where you hope to not cut
the wire off as you cut through the insulation and hopefully strip
off just the insulation..
so Ive got this type...
