[Elecraft] OT: FS: A.P.E. EX-700 Rework Station - Like New

[Jim Sheldon]

For those of you working with "through hole" and even surface mount PC
boards and needing a real good rework station that has both adjustable
vacuum and adjustable pressure air to run hot-tip desoldering tools, and
hot-air surface mount rework tools, I have just the thing for you.

This is an A.P.E. (Automated Production Equipment) model EX-700 (larger
configuration as used by the military) that is essentially new.  It's been
used to de-solder one connection since I got it.  APE sells this thing new
for over $1200.  It will take all the PACE or APE tips.

It comes complete with the vacuum desoldering tool, soldering pencil,
control unit, cleaning tools, extra desoldering tips, footswitch and manual.
Temperature control on both the soldering and desoldering side is digitally
controlled with large LED digital readouts.  Set the temp, and it will stay
where you set it.

This unit did not come with the hot-air tool but it can be obtained and will
work with the controller.  The outlets on the front are 24 Volt AC for the
two tools, adjustable air pressure and vacuum.

The temperature ranges for both the soldering and desoldering sides are
selectable 200-500 degrees low and 500-950 degrees high.

I'm asking $350 shipped anywhere in the US for it.  Here's your chance to
get one of the best rework stations available.  Pictures on request - email
me off list if you're interested.

I'll take PayPal (add 2.9%), or Money Order - First I'll take it, gets it.
