I think it's going alright..

I'm using a 25w standard soldering iron, I was first using the pointy tip but i didn't like that all as it was hard to smooth it out, so i then sanded the tip down to a 45deg flat which works a treat..
I'm using strips of thin ABS, i found the thiner the better esp. because my tip is quite small compared to the commercially available tip on the proper plastic irons.
