[Noisebridge-discuss] Hot air rework station anyone?

[miloh]

Lots of ways we can break this down, I'll pitch in $20-$30 for a fund to
purchase one of these digital stations and one of the analog ones.  The
'analog' station is at going for $95.00

Hopefully we can find 10-20 other people interested in a one-time
sponsorship of the associated costs.
