    Tips and Tricks

    The power to the workbench is located at the far right back corner of the workbench. It is mounted in the electrical box with the outlets.

    A good temperature to start with is 350C for 60/40 (60% tin, 40% lead) solder. Any solder with silver in it will require a higher temperature.
