Hakko Tips

Yep, chisel tip all the way. Also, I ordered my Hakko last year and got a coffee mug with it.

That mug's handle's gotta be caked in lead and flux by now!

I am an avid T18-D32 user. I had a lot of challenges with conical tips, and fan-boi'd from Robert's comment bought a D12 and D32 to test years back. The D32 became the #1 right away.

I find it perfect for PCBs. If you know my boards, then I can honestly say that they've been built with a D32. The wedge end is great for getting across the pad. It can even do two legs of a SMD transistor at the same time! (If they're on the same side).

I actually have a T18-D24. I’ve always figured it’d be way too big for pcb work.

Yeah, I should probably stop building pedals in my kitchen!

This one gets by far the most use, but I have close to a dozen others too:

T15-D12 is the current workhorse


Also have a BC1 for the occasional SMD package

I wish that S9 was available in T15 It'd be nice to have that little bit extra, narrow section for tight spaces.

That looks like the one I use too.
