Skadis Holder: Flux Syringe and Pen Holder (uses heat set inserts)

October 3, 2022
Description
Skadis holder for 20.5mm diameter (or smaller) flux syringes (x3), 16.5mm diameter (or smaller) flux pens (x4) with extra slots/spaces for storing various other soldering tools. Most desoldering pumps fit into the syringe spaces just fine as well.
Bonus slot to keep a biegelehre in a much deserved place of honor and respect, which brightens up any workbench. :)

Printing Notes
Yep, this is a big print! It'll take a long time - about 18 hours on a MINI+ at 0.25 and over a day at 0.20. The printed one in the photo was printed at 0.20 in PETG without any supports, taking about 28 hours to complete, and it turned out beautifully.
For printing any heat-set insert project on a FFF/FDM printer its a good idea to use 4+ perimeters to make sure that there's enough surface for the inserts to bite into.
My test and final prints were done on a stock Prusa MINI+ with Prusament PETG. PLA and other materials should work fine though.
