My new and first station. Always have a cheap iron in my tool bag but rarely use it.

thanks for all the info and sources! Wow, my first post RE sockets and it took on a life of its own 😅 lots of great info though! i’ve soldered pots and guitar wiring before but never PCB work and mainly afraid i’ll overheat and fry the tranies. I’m also worried about the traces and leg pads...

I’m having a hard time finding sockets for my Fuzz Aldrin build! BC109C transistors are TO-18 for the can. The couple of nice high quality ones are around $7-8 each 😔 One place (ThorLabs) has TO-18 Photo Diode sockets that look identical to a transistor. AI said pinout matters. How can pinout...

Sorry! Forgot: a Fuzz Face (hopefully GeSi selectable will be my 1st build as it looks simple enough. Been an electronics fan for 40 years. Took classes and 20 years low voltage field tech/GC/PM but very little on the iron. So nervous I’ll kill $10 PCBs for a few attempts - ✌🏻✌🏻

Skreddies are out of reach for the Working Poor 😔 Really is a term from Sociology! Seriously though, I dream of a Lunar Module on a daily basis and bummed out so turning to the DIY community and looking for a good soldering station that won’t fracture the piggy bank. 1st post 🙋🏼‍♂️ Dean

If you use an expression pedal, does it then have the range and sound like a Wah pedal? And to add an expression jack, does it wire to where the treadle pot assembly would wire to the board? May wish to get with you on the schematic/wiring (outboard device) Thanks!! Dean
