Picked up a used metcal from fleabay today for about 185 + shipping.
I figured if I'm going to build a mixer and make 1000+ connections, I ought to invest in a decent iron.
All the reviews say its temperature stability under load is second to none.
I've never used one so...I'm kinda excited to try it out!
Edit: Anyone have a soldering iron horror story or saved-the-day story? Do you have a metcal? What do you think of it compared to say, a JBC or Pace?
