[Elecraft] Stripping toroid leads

[N2TK, Tony]

Is there a recommendation on small solder pots? I don't need one often, but
there are times such as stripping several wires and/or tinning wires where
it would be nice to just dip the wire into the pot to remove the insulation.
I see some online for <$30. Are they any good?

Damp kitchen sponge works great.  My Weller solder station has a little one
with cuts in it in the base of the holder.  Whatever enamel contamination
ends up of the iron tip comes right off and the tip is shiny and bright
again.
