Does anyone have any recommendations for brands of soldering stations that work well for bending?
I know it should be under 30W with a fine tip on the pencil.
Any other specific ideas?
Thanks.

Re: Soldering Station
Sun, February 10, 2008 - 12:10 PMHello,
I picked one up from ebay like this (dont remember the seller) over a year ago when i got sick of my old iron:
cgi.ebay.com/Velleman-VT...cmdZViewItem
It has a small tip thats perfect for getting into tight spaces for bending and its adjustable to 50w. I thought I was getting something cheap at the time as I didn't the money to drop into a new and 'nicer' Weller station but its still going strong - haven't had to replace the tip yet either... apparently you can if need be. Hope this helps. -

I actually bought myself a 25W Weller.
Now to play...
