In theory they look good. Any real world experiences? Thanks.
Solder Pots (http://www.wenesco.com/static.htm#statictop)
At the company where I work, we have dozens of the round plato solder pots. These are only used in our company for tinning wires. We even have some wave solder pots, also again only used for wire tinning. I guess it depends on what you want it for.

Well i would probably use it in the manner described on the site.
Soldering circuit boards in a shallow pot dates back to the 1950,s and is still a reliable method of low volume soldering of PCB's. First spray or brush soldering flux on the bottom of the board. Next skim the surface of the pot to clear surface dross (oxidation). Finally, using a "board gripper," dip the board flat into the molten solder. The board will solder in less then 5 seconds.
