This is a Gridfinity-compatible soldering station that includes modules for organizing soldering tools.
The station features a soldering iron tip cleaner designed to help reduce tin splashes when wiping the tip. It can be locked into the station by rotating it in place, keeping it secure during use. A template is included so you can cut a piece of soldering silicone mat (~1 mm thick) to place inside the cleaner for additional splash protection.
The station also accommodates two solder wire rolls/spools (maximum width 40 mm, maximum diameter ~65 mm each), and offers optional soldering iron holder and helping hand mounts.
The project also includes companion models:
- Soldering iron cleaner container
- Helping hand base and mounts
- Alligator clips and adapters for both printed and metal clips
- Customizable axle for solder wire rolls/spools (adjustable to match the hole size of different spools)
Required/Optional Parts:
- For the soldering iron holder, a standard 608ZZ bearing is required.
- For the soldering iron tip cleaner, you will need Soldering Tip Cleaner Brass Wire.
- Optionally, you can insert a piece of soldering silicone mat (~1 mm thick) using the included template for added splash protection.
- Optional: Metallic alligator clips (if preferred instead of the 3D-printed ones).
