I'm glad to hear the good press on the older Weller soldering guns. I guess I didn't really know what I nice gift my girlfriend bought me. Yep, the same woman who would LOVE to see the Zenith in the kitchen vaporize as well as the 5 other sets that she widdled me down to. Actually, she does see some charm in a 1950 RCA TC-127 in the living room, so it may have hope of a long and healthy life.
But she brought home this Weller in it's factory gray case with a nice piece of period advertisement inside the cover as well as the Styrofoam insert that seems impossible to pack it in. Actually, I think it broke in two on my last attempt, so I keep the gun on the shelf. We have a newer one at work that is the same size, but feels like a toy in your hand compared to the old one. Great stuff!
