soldering iron ?

[RacerX]

Just how bad is it to actually inhale some of that crap? I only ask cause it seems everytime I solder the crap comes right at my face. I only do it once in a great moon, nothing on a regular basis, but I have definately inhaled some of that crap

Now, I know it's really not good for you, I jsut want to know that I ain't gonna die from a FEW fumes

It also causes one to misspell words...

Some attribute the fall of Rome to lead poisoning.

Remember, the rosin (assuming you are using rosin core solder) smokes a lot too.

Well, one thing is for sure, I won't be soldering in my house anymore

Is your house in Rome?
(Sorry).

Put an exhaust in your window, force the air a bit.
Should be fine.

I use either a fan by my workbench, or throw the garage door wide open.

Na, but my house will fall faster than Rome if it catches on fire


Well, as of this weekend, I have a shed to do this kind of stuff in, so I don't need to do it in the house, I'll just make sure I put a fan in the window even though I will be out in the shed.

Problem with me getting lead poisoning, I already have all those symptoms from all kinds of other crap, so I would never know if I have it or not LOL HAHAH!

Prolly from all that Xanax.



On the other hand...rosin is good.
I put it in my "special" taco sauce.
