the one that came with my Aoyue station has a waist at the entrance end. might be a feature worth looking for. maybe this one?

you need a lint-free tissue, such as Kimwipes

375° is about optimal for everyday soldering such as pin headers, balancing ease of use vs. tip life. turn down 20° or so for smaller welds, up 20° or so for larger welds

it's $15 well spent (I only paid $8 on fleabay for mine). seriously, that little tub will last approximately years

probably, but I don't know of any. use a resistive divider

>low voltage signals prancing right between line and neutral with the bare minimum of 1.5mm between mains and low voltage
>skinny-ass traces for 30A
fire hazard/10, you're gonna need 20mm wide traces at 2oz copper for 30A, or some channels in the mask to lump solder onto, or your artwork on both sides of 2oz board. also double your clearance between mains leads and between mains and low voltage
may I suggest you try again with the ac-dc converter at the bottom and maybe a 12F series PIC

it'll cause other problems, like faster tip wear. brass/copper wool isn't just a meme
