Hi,
Just about to break out my new digital soldering station.
It said that I should tin the tip when I'm done each time to avoid oxidation of the tip -- makes sense.
And I guess when I first turn it on I should heat the tip to the point where the solder melts and wipe it off on the damp sponge?
Anything else that needs to be done to make these things last? Any hints or suggestions?
