Your soldering irons are the best. I've used my old trusty, rusty's for about 40 years, since I bought them all at Chicago's historic Maxwell street market for about 5 bucks as a young, broke artist. They sure have served me well all these years..soldering many a lamp and window!

I also think its great you encourage repair of tools in this sadly throw away world. Thanks for your doing your part of keeping less of landfills.

My company specializes in supplying and installing high-end custom copper gutter-work, and I've been using American Beauty's 300 & 550 watt heavy-duty soldering irons for years. It is absolutely essential that these joints are done properly the first time, as repairs will prove 100 times more difficult than simply doing the job correctly the first time. I can always count on my American Beauty iron to generate and maintain enough heat to ensure perfectly soldered seams.
