This starter soldering kit has everything for you to get soldering except a pickling component but as Im a silversmith student I have a solution to my problem do all the soldering at home a pickle silver in class that way I have time to one find a suitable device and two get ahead of whatever Im creating. Advice on when your parcel arrived check everything as my auroflux had leaked but thankfully just into the plastic bag, I told cooksons via email and got a new bottle leak free, it arrived in two days and I much prefer it than the borax cone.

this is a really good kit to but to get you started off as it supplies you with a lot of the basic equipment you will need. As Ian mentions, remember you will need to buy fuel for the torch It also took me a while to get to grips with filling the torch as you have to push the fuel nozzle very hard against the torch. All the other equipment was as I expected although I hadnt used liquid flux before but it has been fine.

some details of what you get - 29 Oct 2009
by Ian Harding
The hand torch is a butane microtorch and youll need to get fuel for it. The soldering block measures approx 3.5 x 7 x 14 cm. My soldering sheet arrived in two pieces but was replaced by return of post very impressive. The three solders are 60cm lengths so plenty to be getting on with. The liquid flux 250 ml is labelled Auroflux for gold and silver. For the chemists out there, the pickling salt is I think sodium hydrogen sulfate and the label suggests using 50g per litre at 30-80C, so theres enough for 20 litres but youll need to find a suitable container. The other parts the 3 tweezers, solder probe and flux brush are good entry-level pieces that look like they should last. All the parts are familiar to me from evening classes except that flux and theres nothing added or taken away from what we have been shown to use, so this kit has allowed me to land running.
