I tend to just use a cheap 240v maplins ones with a fine tip for light work.
|
I have a snap on lighter gas powered on good for hard to get to places and also have a cheap maplin 240 yellow handle one.

Cool was looking on eBay got a lot of seats going for under a tenner wasn't sure if they was any good
|
I got mine from maplin's.
It wasn't their own brand and it's pretty bitchin' for general work. |
