"My Sunbeam was used for desoldering chips from surplus circuit boards,
back when Dad was teaching high school electronics. He'd remove the
chips from donated circuit boards, then repackage them as kits for his
students to build. He had a fairly large selection of little gadgets the
students could build from recycled parts. This was back in in the 1970's
and 1980's when you could still do that sort of thing.

Dejavu---My cousins used to build radiio,s etc from heathkits and misc,
parts.My Mom was a foreman in an electronics plant in northern NJ and
got me my first job there at 17.There were12 employees then,now theyre
worldwide.That was just before PCB'S. came in,all done by
hand,wiring,harnessing,testing,stripping and soldering,(and solder
pots)stuffing components..and that AWFULL melting teflon wiring.When
pcb's came in we did work for Bendix Aircraft,power supplies,control
panels..loved it,did it till the 70,s,got married went into restaurant
biz.I still drag out the old iron now for repairs
Thanks for bringing back a memory.
