[QUOTE="Konstantin, post: 168637, member: 30996"] Yes its just a cheap soldering iron to burn plastic with.It even came with adjustable temperature from 200°C to 400°C On 250°C 2mm aclylic dont burn as fast as plastic boxes and the tip only makes 5mm hole when pushed trough wich is fine for SA or Adult T that will fit in 30cm cube . When burning plastic boxes for juveniles and large slings I set temp on minimum and keep switching the iron on and off to get it to melt slowly and is more easy to work with when small holes are needed. Its true that drilled holes are much cleaner but there is chance to crack the acrylic too. Regards Konstantin [/QUOTE]
