If you want to learn how to do good soldering with "old"
and "unsophisticated" equipment, see the Pace Basic
Soldering Lessons.

In contrast to most of the wittering talking heads and
videos of printed pages(!) found on yootuub,
those are excellent videos:
  - short, because production and distribution of the
    films was expensive
  - to the point, because they are short
  - good on theory of what needs to be done, and why
  - good practical demos of what happens when you
    get it right - and wrong

The only major flaw is that it is difficult to suppress
sniggering at the pronunciation of "solder".

Of course CD won't see this message, because he's blocked
me. His loss :)
