Weller WESD51 is my favorite affordable soldering iron. I've done quite a bit of surface-mount assembly with it; having the adjustable temp is nice. And as the name implies, it's ESD-safe.
If you have extra money, by all means, get a Metcal. I used one about 25 years ago and I've never seen a better iron. Finest point, lightest handle, best thermal insulation. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
