Coverite had a pocket thermometer for covering iron. Is there an RC store that sells such a thermometer for checking a covering irons range of temperatures. It is featured in Raye Stilley's book Covering R/C airplanes. I just felt it would be nice to see what temperatures my iron is putting out? Doc Ferguson

I believe they still make it.
It's a great instrument for measuring your covering iron temperatures, especially for the more temperature-sensitive coverings like Coverite sells. Once you measure your iron, simply put a mark on the control dial at the critical temperatures. No need to constantly remeasure.

Thanks everyone. I did find it on Tower Hobby. Doc Ferguson
