Buy stuff to make stuff

I <3 weller irons and xcelite tools. If you've looking to get a wes51 (my strong suggestion for anyone who's doing serious electronics) or 170M shear cutters (get 2, they get broken by misuse) this is a good time. Check out the flyer: its a stupid mail-in rebate but I’ve never had a problem with these. The irons are $20 off ($80 total) and the shears are $4 off ($0.60 total). You can get the tools at All Spec or Jameco.

    I have a WESD51 (with the digital thermostat) and I love it, best hobby investment I’ve made. I got it for about $120 at hmcelectronics.com but I don’t think I really needed the digital readout, so WES51 is fine.
