FS : Solder Station & Spare tips (Iron needs replaced though) NOW SOLD

Selling my old now replaced solder station it is this one. The iron's heating element went pop and as I had a job on and Maplin had no irons in stock I impatiently bought a new solder station. Couldn't be bothered waiting 3 or 4 days for the new iron.

£15 plus postage seems fair to me as it is still £49.99 new.

Which has been replaced by this.

A replacement iron is £10.99 from Maplin and is this one.

I also have at least 3 spare tips and will pop the old iron in the box for spares if needed.

Here are a couple of pics and all in the photos will come with it (inc the old iron with bust element).

    FYI, you can get new elements, too:

    (I have the same station, and it's done a *lot* of work).

    Nice one @Misterg that is very useful.

    The Maplin bozo said they do not do them, silly boy. But I never checked as I should have.

    But cheers for the heads up for me and potential buyers.

    Buying a spare iron is definitely less hassle, though! (And they just plug in - no soldering necessary, errr... which is just as well...)
