Same, except with soldering materials and circuit components since there's no more Radio Shack or anything. I don't solder super often, just to fix things in my hobby, so ordering from someone like McMaster Carr doesn't really make sense. Amazon has been super clutch in this case
I have seen some simple solder equipment and supplies at Home Depot and Lowe’s in the last year, usually with the other electrical wiring and equipment. Of course, you still have to go out to a store and hope that they have something, because I have found both to have unreliable in stock information, but it can’t hurt if you need something same day.
I was more talking about soldering for microelectronics, not automobiles and homes
