Pine64 Soldering Station

I wanted to create an organized, compact station for my Pinecil and 120W PinePower so I could easily move all my soldering equipment around together. The station is designed to hold a tub of flux, brass wool, the 120W PinePower, the Pinecil in the foam piece it came packaged in, the power cord for the PinePower, and a USB-C cable for the Pinecil. There is also a storage cubby under the handle for additional things like extra soldering tips and wick.The handle doubles as a holder for a hot Pinecil, as you can see in the photos. The PinePower fits snugly as a press-fit and the guide channels on the inner walls will stop it from falling out the back. It is a perfectly tight fit and the same goes for the foam packaging the Pinecil is stored in. The cord rungs are rotatable to make wire retrieval quick and easy.In my design I tried to reduce the amount of support required and it is best to print the main housing front-side down. The handle, solder spool holder, and cord holder pieces are to be screwed in with M4 flathead bolts. The design requires seven of these.
