O'SKOOL Edge Banding Iron 100–200°C with Digital Display, Adjustable Heat Sealing Tool for Veneer & Tacking, °C/°F Switchable 110V

Use this to put on iron on wood edge banding tape good temperature settings you can adjust so you don't burn the banding tape even prefinished wood banding tape

Great tool made for the job

Using a IR thermometer, I discovered that, while the covering iron temp reading is actually extremely accurate when preheated and sitting on the stand, it cools down by as much as 10-20 degrees F when used on sheeting or plywood (i.e. a fuselage or the leading edge sheeted surface of a wing), then overshoots the target temp by about the same amount when allowed to heat up again. The iron doesn't really have enough "thermal mass" to stay hot throughout a covering operation and when it heats back up again, the temp distribution is uneven since the heating element doesn't contact the whole iron surface.You could get around all these problems by slowing down and not cooling the iron off as much, which is what I did to get acceptable results, but I'll be buying a 'dumb' iron for future projects. Ultracote (or at least the one roll of white I have) will shrink slightly at 220 F and gets really sticky already at that temperature, so if the iron didn't have 'quench' issues, I'd set it to 210 or so. Your mileage may vary.Ultracote's shrinking properties are such that, once it has been exposed to a certain temperature, it won't shrink again until it gets hotter. This means that the temperature oscillating behavior is also frustrating for the final bonding to surface and shrinking out wrinkles operations. As with the initial tack down process, the key is to use the iron in such as way as to not suck too much heat from it. The iron was able to achieve the temperature required for this (250-300 F and above), but after a while the LCD starts to overheat and turn black until it cools off again.Covering irons for RC plane use are getting hard to find and this product is up to the task IF you know how to use it.

Used this for many hours to apply hundreds of feet of edge-banding laminate on plywood. I thought "digital" would be overkill, but it was nice to set the temp to a perfect 200 degrees Celsius per the edge-banding manufacturer's recommendation. I also like the non-stick coating. It was easy to wipe clean of excess glue.

We use item for our airplanes and it is so nice to have the digital readout and simple push button temperature adjustment. Comes with a little wire stand and again works fantastic!!

My last veneer iron died and I replaced it. I immediately used it and it worked perfect perfectly. I like the display which is much better than what I had before. I don’t see how they can do better.

It was nice when it worked but half way through our first project with the iron it stopped working. We were using it for about 30 minutes, and then noticed the temperature just started going down and down--never to get hot again. We tried several things but no luck getting it to work. Should have gone to our local woodworking shop and bought a quality product, or a regular iron from Costco. Now the device just reads 25 degrees C, and never increases. Hopefully the seller will get back to us and remedy the problem and I will update my review. Amazon informed us that our return window had closed a month after the purchase. We will defiantly rethink the things we purchase online.

I got this iron to replace a 30-year-old one that had been dropped several times cracking all the plastic pieces. This new iron works very well; the controls are easy to use, and the digital temperature readout is nice. It heats up fast and holds the temperature well. It seems fairly sturdy and just does what I expect it to do.
