Correct, Bert. Besides, I think most of us were using irons with wood burning kits (remember those) when we were around 7 or 8. Not much difference in the heat of a wood burning iron and a 25W soldering iron except for the recommended safety goggles.
And, fire extinguishers were probably more necessary with the wood burning kits! ;o) 73 and Happy Turkey!
