The Hakko 936 was suggested to me but there are so many chinese knockoffs that I can't risk it.

The desoldering tools, I generally used, were the Endeco or the Radio shack type with the heating element and the squeeze bulb. They also were great for removing excess solder from point-to-point wired sets. You had to keep them clean or they lost their effectiveness. Seldom, if ever damaged a PC board.
