Re: [motm] If Paul gets to be sloth, I am a Dodo

I am fully hooked on this water wasbable flux solder. Superb stuff, but
one word of warning, I really do recommend a smal desk top fume
extractor/filter. I found the Multicore washable flux solder really got
up my nose, literally. The Kester that was provided in the MOTM kit was
much better in this respect, but we can't get that here in the UK.

But I do still prefer ordinary rosin flux for wiring jack plugs and
other cable jobs. The newer no-clean stuff doesn't melt fast enough or
'tin' as well as the rosin. Maybe I need to get a hotter iron...
