I went the more economical $24.95 Circuit Specialists
Inc. route - and bought like 5 extra tips, for the K2
build. I had new tips, and a new soldering station -
and the build went very well - and I think all of my
solder joints were super (IMHO). I'm not one to
invest tons in a soldering iron - once month long
K2 job is over - I could toss it if I had a mind to.
For sure I had super sharp and super hot tips the
whole build. For these reasons - I don't invest
biga bucks in Weller, etc. I put the money - into
my backup IC-7000.
Fred, N3CSY
