<issue_title>research a soldering station</issue_title>
<issue_description>Hello

  • we are a workshop
  • we offer repairs and repair different things on our own
  • currently we have "Aoyue 968A+" Heißluft Lötstation Proessional SMD Rework Station" from a member
  • the member would like to solder and we enjoyed the ability to use the hot air from the "Aoyue 968A+" for shrinktube
  • we also enjoyed the fact that fumes were sucked off directly from the soldering iron
  • we don't neccesaerey need a single device, but it propably has it's advantages

can you do some research on your own and make an overview in a markdown file. please also add a README.md with an overview of all the research that might be added in the future.

here is some options we researched:

@copilot can you add a USB-c soldering iron option with some fume extraction self made setup similar to https://www.hackster.io/news/this-109-portable-workstation-replaces-a-desk-full-of-electronics-gear-84fafd818560

There is a very popular USB-c power delivery powered soldering iron option. We like to have a bit of a power envelope in the workshop, for USB -c powered, more is better.

Keep the link as a reference.

Added in 6bd306e. Option 5 now covers USB-C PD soldering irons with a comparison table of the three main contenders:

  • FNIRSI HS-02A (100 W, ~€40–75) — top pick for max wattage
  • Pinecil v2 (88 W, ~€52–66) — open-source runner-up
  • Miniware TS101 (65–70 W, ~€60–80) — premium build

Also includes a DIY fume extraction section with materials list (~€15–30), 3D-printable designs (Printables, Adafruit, Hackaday.io), and build guides (iFixit, Electromaker). The Solderbot Hackster.io link is referenced as inspiration for where USB-C portable workstations are heading. Decision guide and quick comparison table updated with the new option.

Added in f6c7b82. All three markdown files now have deep links:

  • Table of Contents added to both soldering-station.md and loetstation.md with anchor links to every section
  • Comparison table headers linked to their respective option sections (e.g., clicking "Preciva 992D+" in the table jumps to Option 1)
  • Recommendation section items linked back to their option sections
  • README.md expanded with deep links to each option section and to the recommendation/comparison sections in both languages
