Re: Cool Idea
Travis,
Never use any acid flux or acid core solder with electronic circuitry. It
will turn copper wire
to a copper salt in record time. Old timers cleaned the solder tip by simply
swiping it
across their pants and then putting solder on the tip to tin it and then
again swiping across their pants. I had to stop when the synthetic fibers
came along. :-)) Now we use a wet sponge but cotton or woolen pants are
better. I would use only a very high grade of Kester or Alpha solders.
Happy Day,
