    Its nice to know that there are still people in the world who will let you in front of them in a supermarket queue when you've only got a couple of items and they're doing the weekly shop. Make me feel that there's hope for this world yet.

    After using 188 for the last few weeks 145 seems like soldering with clay.

    1. N15class

      N15class

      I find 145 does not flow as nicely as 188

      martin_wynne

      For the best wetting and flow, use 179 with 2% silver.

  24. halfwit
