Hi Folks,
When I first used my Weller sodering station (700F), it was practically
impossible to strip the wire. I found an old 100 Watt soldering iron, thats
gets really hot after 15 minutes, and the enamel flies off the wire. Just to
give it a try!

Hi to the List,
I've taken it on board guys, what I'm now doing is the sand paper first to
roughen the enamel then the blob. It works much better. Much quicker.
Before i was just using the blob and it seemed to take forever.
I am going to try a Stanley knife just gently on the wire to see how that
does.
Regards
