Pinecil/TS-100 Soldering Iron Stand

thingiverse

This is a remix of the [TS-100 sponge stand by MightyNozzle on Cults3D](https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/tool/ts100-soldering-iron-holder-station). I didn't have any full metal/ceramic 608 bearings around, but I did have some M8 nuts that fit in a 14mm wrench. I also shoved a 23/64" x 1-3/8" spring into the nut which is probably unnecesary but I thought it looked good and should help with the heat. You will need an M3 nut, washer, and bolt that is 12mm or longer to secure the M8 nut in the retainer. The original designer suggests using masking tape around the nut to make it a very tight fit and to help with thermals. Temperature resistant epoxy also works. If you need a different size, feel free to leave a comment and it shouldn't be much trouble for me to add it in the files. I highly reccommend using PETG. PLA will likely melt. Both the nut and spring were from Harbor Freight kits: [Storehouse 460 Piece Nut And Washer Assortment](https://www.harborfreight.com/725-piece-nut-and-washer-set-with-6-inch-parts-tray-67624.html) [Storehouse Assorted Spring Set, 200 Pc](https://www.harborfreight.com/200-piece-assorted-spring-set-67562.html)
