| Hakko 936
Finally got something I really needed. A Hakko 936 & soldering holder thingy. Didn't really have anything to solder, so I made a spare/back-up dig switch. After tinning & getting it together, I love this thing. 1000 times better than my old Radio shit station I had been using. I recomend it for everyone. |

I love mine, had it for about 4 or 5 months now. I got mine with the UpGrade RC vinyl graphics. The 936 is pretty much the R/C industry standard soldering iron/station. |

| I looked at the upgradeRC site & they don't have a section for the 936. I'd like to get one that's the same as my DX3R & Ice charger.

You can get the kit at www.amainhobbies.com They have the station and the graphic kits or you could buy the full kit that comes with the graphics. Here is a link that has the kits and the graphics that are available. http://www.amainhobbies.com/advanced...=70&filter_cat I have the orange one and it looks great and performs well. I can't even look at the old weller pistol type. I especially like the way you can set it and forget it. You don't have to wait for it to heat up again you just pick it up and boom you are ready. |

This is a great set up...one of the best I've used. I ordered mine direct from Hakko and also picked this up: http://www.hakkousa.com/detail.asp?PID=749&Page=1 It works killer, but I did have to anchor it to my bench with some ESC/Servo tape to hold it still. |

Those look sick dude. I need to get something for the Ipod Touch also. I like the theme you went with. That is the Fresh Ink wrap correct? I am looking at the reaper skins and want to know where to look for the iron skins on there site? I just looked all over and couldn't find them.
