Pest's LP mk2

[stan]

I have some PBG pots from an LP kit, if you want them let me know and I'll post them to you - no cost

@ Nick and Tony, yeah I use 60 watts too, but I just had it on for a smidge too long, for the rewire I'll definitely use a quick touch, love the almost instantaneous melting of the solder!
@ Stan, I'll PM you my address on Facebook tomorrow sometime, thanks mate!

[stan]

you're welcome, I'm not going to use them , and the price is right

Pest - also found that using the right solder is a must - started with some from the big green barn - that was 2-3 times as thick as the stuff I found at Altronics. Took 3 times as long to get it to run and when it did it ended up everywhere. Picked up some new stuff from Altronics and it's sooooo much easier...

Good to see you're back and building. Sounds like a good plan.

Bman, I've always been using the stuff from Altronics, really does the job!

Allo Pesticle.
If you can afford a few bucks extra, a "temperature contolled" soldering station is more than worth its weight.
I'm with Brendan, I get all my peripheral components etc from Altronics.
Good luck young whippersnapper . . .
