Don't buy Draper tools!

I recently purchased a 100W soldering iron from them.....
1. The bit fell out and burnt the carpet after some 10 minutes use.
2. After being left on for an hour or two (cumulative annoyances in
trying to solder a PL259 onto the coax braid), the tip has a large hole
in the end.

Not having learnt my lesson, two days ago I purchased a pair of rotary
pliers for punching holes in leather - after punching 3 holes, 4 of the
punches fell out of the rotary selector, where they were supposedly
a force fit.

(Buying Chinese-manufactured goods can spoil your love
affair for engineering - you get a "Chink" in the amour!)

Soldering Iron - I'm looking for something decent that won't burn up tips
when left on for hours on end. I would also like interchangeable tips to
range from heavy duty to fine soldering.
