Default RE: covering Irons question

I've used all of those irons and they all work great. You'll do fine with any of them. If you are making an order to Tower I would recommend that you also pick up a thermometer [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXB352&P=7]Coverite Pocket Thermometer[/link] . This little tool is invaluable when covering. It let's you set your irons for the proper temps for covering. Whenever I get a new iron I will use the thermometer to calibrate the iron, and I label the temps on iron for future reference. Never ever trust the temp settings printed on the iron itself, rather verify it with the Pocket Thermometer first.

Hope this helps
