Hi, looking at getting a de-soldering tool so I can do some mods to my console. Just wondering which ones I should be looking at.
Cheers Andy

Re: De-soldering tool
Rhino tools do a nice vacuum desolderer for about $170.

Worth the investment if you've got a lot of mods to do

Good price. If you can afford it, get the vacuum one. Best thing I ever bought. Seriously.

Re: De-soldering tool
Hey Guys,
Any more thoughts and experiences with these Rhino desordering units?
I think it's time i got one (heap of old synths and bits of gear to recap)
This Rhino one looks okay but i would rather use braid than get a desolder that doesn't cut it.
I have a few hundred caps to get through (probably even more than a few hundred) so i figure i need one of these..
Cheers
