You mean tips for the 936? The 808 I have is a one size fits all and it is strictly for plate through holes unless great care is taken. For SMD I would use solder wick and/or a cutting tool!
Those are both great tools. At the same time get some tiny solder. I use 0.015 and 0.020 for kit building. With 0.015 it is pretty hard to flow too much solder unless you are really trying.

There are some excellent notes on the website re the 936, so it looks like I want to buy a 1.2D, 2.4D, 3.2D, and S3. Right? Do I need a stand for the 808? BTW -- kiesub seems to have the best price on all of this stuff -- at least 10% below test equipment.net.
