- a soldering iron does not belong in your shirt pocket along with the pencils

- do not hold a soldering iron between your teeth whilst you find the flux/solder/etc

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.
Did you know that the word "gullible" is not in any dictionary?

A soldering iron should not be used at any time to keep yourself warm.

Watch it with that flux too!  I just recently heard a story about a kid who didn't wash his hands before going to the bathroom.  Apparently some of that flux rubbed off on him, and it's kind of acidic.  From then on, people called him Hot Rod.

Molten solder is not as clear as water. I guess that's why it gets you high. :o

I have yet to solder anything in my life and, thanks to Pet's public service announcement, I'll be sure to run if I hear the words solder, soldering, or gun in the same sentence.
