Frequently asked questions

What is a shopping set?
A short list of everything one job needs — the iron, consumables, safety gear and a first project — chosen to work together. Each line says what the item does and why we picked that one, and one button puts the whole list in your Amazon cart so you do not have to hunt for each part.
Do I have to buy the whole set?
No. Each item has its own link, and the cart button simply pre-fills your Amazon cart — remove anything you already own before you check out. The sets are a starting point, not a bundle.
How are the items chosen?
From the products we have already reviewed and ranked, plus a handful of consumables (flux, wire, heat-shrink, safety glasses) that do not need a review page but every bench needs. Our how-we-rank page explains the editorial method; we do not accept payment for placement.
