Have you tried these guys for the soldering station?

I think they carry many of the ones that Amazon does.

Hope that helps.

One option you might want to look at is going to princess auto, picking up one of their soldering irons (with temp control) and picking up their wireholder with soldering iron holder and magnifying glass. Here are some links:

Almost like building your own soldering station.
