What would you do?
If, like me, you have a hard time leaving well enough alone, be sure to get a good soldering station. I got a Hako a couple of years ago and love it.

 I built my own. I ordered the circuit board from Elliott sound products and tracked down all the parts from different suppliers. I love it and would not go back

+1 @mapman  When I was much younger I would have loved to have gear from many of the mentioned brands. Now I don't have nary a one.
