Message	I'm a horrible solderer and would like to know what kind of tool used to do this as well so I can practice at home on some retired random boards I have laying around. I'd rather practice with a proper tool I know is "proper" versus a say "Harbour Freight" found product or something my father hand-me-downed. I wouldn't know what i'm buying otherwise.
