I use a Hakko soldering station for my actual soldering at work, so I wanted to setup a dedicated iron for installing heated threaded inserts. I grabbed a Weller WE1010 based on personal experience with Weller units at home for fine-tuned temperature control and availability of insert bits. I designed this to replace the sponge in the iron cradle, and added a recessed tray to allow pre-staging of the heated inserts.
If you still use your Weller unit for actual soldering, you can easily set this to the side and leave the sponge where it goes while using this for standard soldering tips, too.
I used PLA plus with 4 walls and 35% gyroid infill. Do what you feel, just make sure the tips are cool before swapping so you don't burn yourself or melt the tray.
