[Elecraft] stripping insulation

[Don Wilhelm]

Thank you Kent for that thoughtful caution.  I have a holder for mine.
When I use it for wire stripping, I lay it on its side on a heat 
resistant surface on the workbench.  No need to touch anything other 
than the handle and the trigger to start the suction.
