It's a hot thing heating up a bit of metal enough so that it becomes drippy. Sometimes I just solder without them, because it's not really that big of a deal, but for something small like this I'm not going to burn myself for someone else's project.

for his own project? sure. it'd be his own fault. not like it'd be a terrible burn if he managed that with a solder, but he sure would judge himself for it. ]
