Re: Where to buy solder?


Charles Rodecap
 

Hello???? I was out of my better solder and needed more of what made soldering fun again.

I found KESTER? 63 / 37 1#? on e-bay for about $22.00 at a seller in Ohio that was in March.

Martin, I found myself in the same predicament.? After 40 years I was
running low on my .032 Kester.? Frustrated with ebay prices I went o
Craigs list and picked up enough for another 40 years at a good price.?
Some people are dumping it.


Good luck,
