Weller 8200. Been using them since the 1960's. I have 3, one in the workshop, garage and spare (I use them every day) They are on ebay all the time. Radio Shack sells the tips. Buy a cheap Harbor Freight heat gun for heat shrink tubing.

I just recently stepped up to a Weller 8200 and love it. Dual heat range comes in handy. It can handle 12 ga. Haven't tried it on 10 ga. My 75W Craftman gun pretty much petered out on 14 ga.
