I use this.. Weller

Really simplifies things not having to deal with a power cord around the layout.

 A butane iron is not really that useful doing delicate soldering, you have very little temperature regulation.  I can see the damage I'd do with one of these on a PCB.

Yeah, I just use it for wire. When it comes to PCBs, I leave that to someone who knows what they're doing. There is a world of difference between Electrical and Electronics. I'm very comfortable in my little electrical world.

Hmm...

Interesting... C times 10/5 minus 1/10 C plus 32, eh?

And I always find these threads cost me money and where to sell my Wellers...

I have a steady supply line open to the Far East from following all these threads around here. Fortunately, most are free shipping. And these things are all usually much less than buying trains. 

PLCProf's formula for C to F is a very good one as well. New to me. I am going to write that down and put a copy on the work bench in anticipation of the arrival of the Hakko calibration tool that this thread has forced me into ordering...

Actually I made a mistake in commenting on PLCProf's formula...

It's C times 10/5 minus 1/10 of 10/5 C plus 32 equals F

That's no problem, easily fixed. I thought you were going to say there was a problem with my Asian supply line.
