    I appreciate the feedback to my questions from several of you.
    Thanks. However, the information in this post leaves me with an uneasy
    feeling.... How often would I have to take a minute or so while
    fusing jump rings.... If I had 1000 jump rings to do would this
    machine be quicker than just soldering them and batch-finishing them
    to brighten them up again? Would I have to stop every 5 welds for a
    minute or so to sharpen the tip? Just wondering if this machine is
    appropriate for production work. 

sincerely,
Edward
