| 1207521 | 2011-06-10 09:42:00 | I have just found Global PC in CHCH and ordered a kit from them. I see that they also have 0.5mm solder both 60/40 and lead free tin/copper: http://www.globalpc.co.nz/ |

| 1207522 | 2011-06-10 10:22:00 | Thanks Terry. A good find and I've ordered .5mm solder from them :) They seemed the simplest. Volt Electronics would have been my other choice - then I remembered I emailed them yesterday to ask where they were located and never got a reply. Their stuff is airmailed from Oz so I guess that's where they live. They give the impression that they're in NZ. |

| 1207523 | 2011-06-10 23:59:00 | I looked at Global PC too but decided that 0.5mm was too big for what I wanted, so I got the 0.3mm and 0.4mm from eBay. Total same weight and about the same price (in fact probably a bit cheaper) | Agent_24 (57) | ||
