That is super cool!
The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.

More tube amp bits, solder, wire strippers and a shiny new Hakko iron. Looking forward to this pro junior rebuild

I've got a Hakko too - very nice. Bought a "chisel" tip for it which makes it a very versatile iron. Found out that there are fake Hakkos - "Chakkos" if you will!rickenbackerkid wrote: ↑Sat Aug 28, 2021 2:30 pm More tube amp bits, solder, wire strippers and a shiny new Hakko iron.

I've been thinking about taking off the housing so I can spray it different colours. The blue and yellow is a bit much.

i have three packages in that black hole,one has been nearly a month i think!RectifiedAmps wrote: ↑Fri Aug 27, 2021 9:28 am Waiting on delivery of a JamMan Solo XT Looper - purchased via Reverb. These are discontinued so I like to tell myself I've bought the last new one in existence - helps to justify the wait: It shipped from the US on July 19th, spent nearly 3 weeks in the black hole known as Haneda Japan, finally arrived in NZ Aug 20th, out for delivery today.
Looking forward to having some fun syncing it up with the SDrum... if the family grants me 5 minutes to myself.

Ideal, because looking at it in my cart along with stand, solder, solder sucker, wire strippers. . .. I thought shit, that's quite a lot of money for a couple of tools. But I've been soldering stuff here and there for close to 15 years on a series of cheap irons, reckon it's worth it if it lasts me years and years.NippleWrestler wrote: ↑Sat Aug 28, 2021 2:32 pm

Re: Forums have been slow, how about a 'In the mail' thread?
Same thing with me. I went through a lot of cheaper irons before finally spending the good money on the hakko, but that's the last I'll need to spend on a soldering iron.rickenbackerkid wrote: ↑Sat Aug 28, 2021 4:25 pmIdeal, because looking at it in my cart along with stand, solder, solder sucker, wire strippers. . ..
