Soldering iron / kit / tips

[padraic_]

So, I think I may try a one or two of projects next year requiring a soldering iron. Maybe an STC, maybe an ispindle.

What would you look to buy? I guess I need an iron, tip, solder, stand, what ekse? Can anyone recommend a decent package or kit that you won't outgrow if you use it once, but that won't cost the esrth?

Look in to lidl/aldi ... Last year i got soldering station at 50%  discount from 30e .. you get different tips there and can change temp. Settings..
