Default Re: Availability of Leaded Solder?

Ouch. I don’t have a great affinity tin-only solder; it’s much harder to get a pleasing flow to the work and the higher melting point is a pain when trying to not burn off the insulation on covered wires.

Maybe I’ve just been unlucky with the batches I’ve tried, but I’d rather stockpile a big reel of Pb/Sn
