Aw snap! I finally broke down today and ordered a
WTCPT and one of them handy lead bending guides from
Mouser. I had no idea Radio Shack was based out of
F.W., but I do have one of the Radio Shack 15/30 watt
irons that got me through my first project, a Paia
Theremax. Even toward the end when I really started to
get the hang of soldering I could definately tell the
difference between one solder and the next as far as
the tip temp not really being too constant.
Especially when I got to soldering the lugs on the
pots and jacks!
