After indulging a bit of curiousity thanks to Google - I "nutted out" and successfully built a resistance soldering unit today! And for peanuts... the peanuts would be far fewer if I hadn't had to buy a PC power supply new! It's easy to make it safer than most 'DIY' builds online, using an automotive fused relay module and some 12v trigger switching. I've only briefly tested it, but the results are astonishing and I'm very keenly looking forward to putting it into full service after a bit more "learning" with scrap etch... I got excited and put a blob of solder on the top rail of my 16t wagon kit build... better just clean that off!
