Does anyone know of and electronics stores around the Dallas/Fort
Worth area that would carry Weller or equivalent soldering irons and
electronics supplies? I'm just tired of the Radio Shack with only
Radio Shack products.  
Thanks,

I got my weller at Fry's in Austin.   Looks like there's one in Dallas 
too.

Me too.  Fry's had a great price on the Weller WES51, better than mail order
pricing.

How ironic: Radio Shack is *based* in Fort Worth. (But hey, that 
doesn't mean that you should like the Shack any more than the rest of 
us. Not that there's a better national electronics chain...)

Didn't Weller make some Shack irons of yore?

Aw snap!  I finally broke down today and ordered a
WTCPT and one of them handy lead bending guides from
Mouser. I had no idea Radio Shack was based out of
F.W., but I do have one of the Radio Shack 15/30 watt
irons that got me through my first project, a Paia
Theremax. Even toward the end when I really started to
get the hang of soldering I could definately tell the
difference between one solder and the next as far as
the tip temp not really being too constant. 
Especially when I got to soldering the lugs on the
pots and jacks!
