How good is a Weller Soldering Station?

<< < (5/5)

bd139:
That’s a good plan. I rather like SMD rework. It’s much easier than TH stuff on plated hole boards.

I was using a Weller TCP with 3.2mm tip for SMD - definitely did the job. Got a metcal recently because the new weller tips were sticking to the ground plane on copper clad boards when doing dead bug. Just didn’t quite have enough bulk due to the new two part tips. Metcal PS900 is less than a new Weller TCP kit now as well. Not sure how the newer weller irons cope with that.
