Firefox 0 Report post Posted February 7, 2004 (edited) I think a lot of people had no clue what point to point soldering was when av98m posted the pictures of the Premium Grado RA-1 Clone I built for him. Here are shots of an example. Edited February 7, 2004 by Firefox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N@Z 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2004 Not that's what I call showing off! LOL! Very impressive dude! Hardly any solder on the joints! This is why you should do more DIY commission work so that more people get to see your expertise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DIYerStraits 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2004 Wahh, good job, dude! BTW, what iron and solder do you use? Those are very, very neat solder joints. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Firefox 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2004 It depends. I use either a fixed temperature 380'C Goot iron or my Goot 20w/ 200w soldering gun. With the fixed temperature gun, I use WBT Silver solder as it's one of the few that work well at such a high temp. With the soldering gun, I use either Goot 2.5% silver solder or WBT silver solder.
