Its still reasonably easy to get hold of the real stuff, but environmentally friendly "solder" is the work of the devil!

Lanarkshire Models has just packaged some very nice 145 C solder wire.

Not on the website yet but have been using it and found it lovely to work with, and yes it does have a wee bit lead in it...

So you’ve found that out then! I bought some a few years ago and a few weeks later I’d bought some lead-based stuff too. Some stalls at shows sell it, have a look round when you’re at one.
