I just read though the tips , thanks all. I'm not a huge fan of Soldering either. I guess I should buy a little flux, I always thought that since I was using Rosin Core solder that I didn't need it?

Quoted from Dawson:Flux seem to transfer heat , I love flux , then I use a tooth brush and alcohol to clean that flux off after soldering ..
Do you clean everything you solder or just PCB's? e.g. Wires to Coil lugs ?
Quoted from Frax:My complaint with alligator clips and "helping hands" that have them is that a lot of times they maul the wire insulation. I'm being nitpicky probably, but it still bugs me.
Could always wrap the alligator clips teeth with a little duct tape or electrical tape? Just something to keep the points from indenting the insulation, but still do the job.
Just a thought, I have never done it..
