MG Flux & Solder Paste Holder

thingiverse

Looked around for a holder that fits my MG Chemicals Flux & Solder Paste perfectly, but couldn't find one I really liked. So I took matters into my own hands and created these custom mounts from scratch. They're designed with close tolerances to ensure the paste doesn't wobble around, so if it's too tight or loose when you make them, just scale them up or down a couple percent as needed. I envisioned the mounts using double-sided tape to attach securely to my Hakko 611-2 Dual Solder Reel Stand and that's exactly how they work. I've got two on each side of the stand, but you could easily fit another pair on each side if needed. If you size them up about 5-7%, they'll also function as a holder for those cheap solder pumps you see in pictures. I've also included an alternative model with screw holes, giving you the option to screw it into place rather than relying on tape. The holes are tapered at 4mm, providing a secure fit.
