[Elecraft] Good deals on vacuum desoldering equipment?

[W6NEK]

Hello All,
While not a professional vacuum de-soldering station, I have used the "GC
Electronics Heated De-Solder Pump" or "The Solder Popper" with a great deal
of success.  This device is perfect for the kit builder that needs to do
occasional rework or repair without a large investment in a Professional
Vacuum Pump De-soldering Station.  Inexpensive, easy to use, and easy to
clean and maintain.

Here is a link to a site that sells the "Solder Popper"
http://www.action-electronics.com/desolder.htm
Just scroll down the page to the GC Electronics Heated De-Solder Pump ad.
There is a picture and description.

I have no affiliation with either Action-Electronics or GC Electronics.
Just passing along what works for me.
