Description
A compact holder/stand designed for USB-C soldering irons. Swappable inserts let you switch irons without printing a whole new stand.
📢 UPDATE 03/27/2026: Added a STEP file that includes all bases and inserts, making it easier for anyone to adapt the design for soldering pens that I don't have on hand.
Base Variations
Included Inserts
Note: These are the specific models I have on hand and have physically verified for fit. I plan to add inserts for other models as I am able to confirm them.
Clearances between stand and insert are set to zero for a snug fit, so make sure your printer is dialed in for best results.
Material: The inserts must be printed in a high-temperature filament.
I verified these using Polymaker HT-PLA-GF, running each iron for at least 10 minutes without any softening or deformation. While most USB-C irons have auto-sleep features, please use common sense and never leave a hot iron unattended.
