Bending iron ..
Earlier this i bought the bending iron made by Artesania and ive harly used it and its died on me..
Tbh its a flimsy item and i would not recommend the make..

So can anybody reccommend a soldering iron with a removable tip that i can remove and put the brass bender in......

Brand name changed appologies...

As an emergency i bought a soldering iron with removable tip from Halfords..
What a difference and only cost £8...
The soldering iron is made by Rolson tools etc the only issue i had was that the brass stem was to narrow and the two grub screws didnt catch easily sorted with a longer bolt type screw out of the tool box cut to shorten and bingo good to go.......
