WOOHOO!

Found an analog Pace unit with soldering and desoldering irons (and built-in desoldering pump) on the local CL for $45! Just picked it up on a long round trip into the office.

The guy knew what he had and what it was worth, but his wife set the price and he was OK with that. He was glad it was going to a new home as he looked up my website from the email address I sent him the inquiry on.

It came with 3 extra glass tubes/S-baffles.

An extra $5 got me a knock-off of a Weller iron, chip puller, anti-static mat, and a 3 light outlet tester.

It's a good day for CL finds!

I'll post a pic later when I get home with it... right now it's in the trunk of the car.
 
Nice. I learned to solder (in the Navy) on a very nice PACE station. I loved the desolder tool most of all. I remember cleaning the glass jar and then wiping it with baby oil so the solder globs wouldn't stick.
Ha.

Nice grab.
