Oh How Original Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Cheers y'all Oh and OHO it all comes down to practice,, I started soldering at around aged 10 lol That would explain it then lol... I sometimes enjoy soldering, provided it goes together, sometimes a connector just won't have any of it and won't seem to bond. Might be crap solder or something as well though.

Oh How Original Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Mines 1.8 flux? Whatever that means. It's Draper, so you expect it to be good, but if it's the right one then it obviously won't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Draper, so you expect it to be good, but if it's the right one then it obviously won't work. i used to use the draper stuff and i didn't like it as it never made clean joints but i switch to some weller stuff and its been spot on and i always get good solder joint now and the price aint to bad either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peakey29 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Gave the Procat it's maiden voyage round the garden and realised the front springs are too soft so now need to find some more fast as it's on to the track on Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) i used to use the draper stuff and i didn't like it as it never made clean joints but i switch to some weller stuff and its been spot on and i always get good solder joint now and the price aint to bad either. Got a link to the stuff you use? Always open to trying new stuff to help improve my soldering. Especially as I have about 12 bullets to solder up soon, I was going to get Bez to do it but I may as well give it a go myself and if I screw it up, give it to him to fix Edited July 20, 2014 by Oh How Original Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
