The pinks are clashing. Any three year old would point it out to you. I once had to paint my daughter's room pink when she was a bit older. I had to repaint it 4 times, and drip paint in my eye (damn that hurt) before it was the "right" pink.:facepalm:

SO right, Petrochef!

Hey, that's the dual external potentiometer Sigelei, right?

Kudos to the little one for having the vision and the talent to beautiful a steel tubelette. :thumb:

Out of the hands of "babes"........ ;)

we did that too, but grandma didn't like making them. Said they were "dangerous" (same grandma that got me a rifle when i was 9, a wood burning kit when I was 12, and a soldering iron when i was 14...) so she got us a tent. Lol

My Dad bought me a Weller soldering gun (100/140 watt) when I was 14...I still have it and it still works.
Same here... except I think I may have just commandeered my dad's. Those stupid screws that hold the tip in had to be loosened and tightened like every 3rd time you used it. I finally put socket head screws on it and cranked them down... now only needs to be done once in a blue moon.

Granmas usually worry more about their grankids than they did about their kids ;)

You got THAT right. When I was a child, it was, "Eat what's on your plate." End of discussion.

Fast forward a decade. I'm home on leave and my parents are keeping their granddaughter overnight. At 8pm, "Grampaw" (my dad) takes grandchild to the freezer for ice cream.

She says, "Not THAT kind, Pop Pop. The Mickey MOUSE kind."

The old SOB takes her out to the truck and drives up the hill to the grocery for Mickey Mouse ice cream.

I just stand there, amazed, wondering where this guy was when I was growing up....

Weller's were quite the workhorses. My Father gave me this one back in the early 70's and I still use it today. It needs a little tap every now and then when the magnetic switch sticks, but there were countless thousands of connections made with this old girl. When she finally packs in I can see a new Hakko FX-888D replacing it, I doubt the Hakko will have the same longevity of the old WTCPL. :D
