[Boatanchors] OT A BIT....What Do You Solder With?--Thanks All

[Don Merz]

Thanks everyone for your input on this. I think the consensus is that Metcal is a good choice. So that is where I headed. Life is too short (and I am such a mediocre tech to begin with!) to compromise on this.Don

Seems a simple question. Maybe not. 
I recently became disenchanted with my old Tenma soldering station. I also have a box of all the usual old soldering irons and such I could use (but don't). I started thinking that maybe for the next 10 years I should just buy something good and be done with it. 
A friend of mine swears by the Metcal soldering stations. They are not cheap, but maybe a good investment. 
What do you use that you like?
