I just received this 5 1/4 from the bay. A very nice type 13. Good iron. I can fix the tote, but there is a hairline crack on the left cheek, which was not disclosed in the listing. You can see it if you start at the adjustment wheel and look towards the white paint marks.
Any suggestions?
It is fairly solid.
I can return it to the seller. Can one solder cast iron? I can just clean it up and use it.
Thanks,
Ken
