New solder station

[tim.sanderson]

Brought home a shiny new soldering station from work. It's the same one I use there, too. It's a pretty nice setup. 60 watts, heats up in seconds and holds it's temp very well. They are a good price too... retails for $80.
That's my extra-nosey cat Marvin. Anytime something new is brought into 'his' basement he has to investigate.

I just got a new station too. Now you are going to start soldering things that don't even need it just to use it ;-)

Is that Marvin HUO ?
More pics and price please.

Are you the original owner, and did you purchase him NIB?

Nice solder station Tim, here is the one I used and organized a group buy for from MCM a few years back. It worked out to be just under $60 with US exchange rate, shipping and taxes coming into Canada.

That looks like a nice one. Great price, too!
I actually paid net on mine, so my cost was quite a bit lower than the retail cost. I haven't even had a chance to use it... I've been too swamped at work. Maybe tonight though!
