Like to get your hands dirty modifying and repairing your own gear? To prolong the life of your soldering iron always leave a ball of solder on the tip when not in use, then wipe it off with a wet sponge, or cloth before using. This will help keep the plating from burning off the tip, making the job much easier, and prolonging the life of your soldering tip.
