MOTM solder??
2002-12-07 by media.nai@rcn.com
I'd like to order a pound of each type of solder included with the MOTM kits, so that way the solder I use for my diy projects has the exact same feel in order to produced the most consistent results. I'm guessing the "organic" is Kester 331 - 63/37 alloy mix, .020" dia., core 66, guage 66. Is that correct?? According to Moe's informative website, the "no clean" included with the kits is Kester 245 with a .05 dia. That's not listed in the Techni-Tool catalog. However, they do list four types of .031" diameter: 63/37 with a core of 50, 58, and 66; and 60/40 with a core of 58. Which is my best choice?? What does "core" specify??
