Soldering latest tools replacing microweld

[richard435]

Hi all. My 30 year old Microweld A Super is coming to the end of its life and I am wondering what people use for soldering these days when making rings etc. Used to run a full workshop and shop doing lots of repairs but past 4 years just making and selling my own designs online.

Just a bit reluctant in these strange times to spend £2000.00+ on a new Microweld that will not be used like the old one was.

Thank you Richard

Hi Richard,

I'm not sure where you are based, but why don't you get your microweld serviced? They don't cost that much to service, I am told and its much cheaper than replacing. I know a chap who services them in the Q, just pm me for his number. Having said all that, I believe most of the members here use either a Smiths Little Torch or a Sievert for their soldering.
