Being one that cannot leave “well enough” alone, I've designed a drive wheel for a 1 pound spool of Kester solder. This is for use with a commercially available solder spool holder and accompanying dust cover I designed, but could be used in any sort of spool holder you like.
Assembly Instructions
- Print out the wheel.
- Notch the spool as shown in the pictures on the desired side to accommodate the nubs inside the wheel.
- Apply double sided tape as shown in the pictures and remove the backer.
- Push the wheel onto the spool and tape, and you're done.
- Now you can re-assemble the spool holder and the dust-cover.
The whole goal behind this is to make retracting the solder back onto the spool easier when the dust cover is in place. So far, I'm really pleased with the results this time versus my other attempts. That said, I bet I could have done away with the notching and the nubs and just used this tape to affix the wheel, but where's the fun in that?
Printing Tips
- Slice file for example and metrics only. Slice your own for best results.
- I printed with no supports and 100% infills.
