BU All these years of sniffing solder fumes and non of my vital
BU body parts has fell off (yet)


But most here caught on that you posted the same reply 4 times.
It makes one wonder about the rest. ;-)

Actually, I sometimes come across stuff I wrote 10 or 20 years ago and
I seemed to be much sharper then. Maybe the Pb is getting to me also.

The whole Lead issue is a hot button in the electronic industry. It
started in Europe, and has spread. Essentially, the mandate is out to
get the lead out of solder in the manufacturing process. I really don't
quite know how this is going to affect the service industry yet. I still
have my trusty 60/40 Kester next to the bench. Sometime in the future i
might have to have separate solder pencils for non leaded solder,
special solder, and a method to ID what it is. Time will tell.
