Most of those is not a must. For me one of the most important thing is Rose alloy and some copper braid for desoldering. Also rosin is one of the best flux available because of guaranteed no corrosion. Also it is best to have not only copper soldering tip for good heat transfer but iron soldering tip as well because it will not get bent when agressively digging some crap.
- awakeasleep 29d agoThe fume extractor is completely superfluous to the hobbyist. Its important to people with occupational exposure but as a hobbyist i cant imagine ever soldering enough to get good if i had to set up a fume extractor every time.
- loufe 29d agoExactly, I solder outside or under the range hood which in confident is enough for a rare job I do
- edoceo 29d agoI do exhaust box fan in the window.
- unrented7977 29d agoYou pull it from the edge of the bench to where you're working and press the switch at the same time. It's not rocket surgery
- cinntaile 28d agoYou have very simple fume extractors. I don't get why it would not be worth it just because you rarely do it. It's like wearing a respirator mask when using a grinder. Or ear muffs when drilling or sawing.
- mittensc 28d agojust use a computer fan next to whatever you are soldering, easy 5-10$ why breathe in the fumes or have them get into your eyes?
