Tip for Soldering pistol

thingiverse

In my country, we have this soldering pistol made by skilled guys which makes it more durable than the ones on the market. Although it falls on user capability to get the right copper wire and create the right tip for the intended purpose. I'm not an expert in this but I think the length and diameter of the wire change the heating properties. I designed a tip maker as mine get damaged after 5-10 solderings so I need to change them pretty often. This is subject to change and anyone can remix it as is the first attempt of this project. The press is easy to use, although it does not have a handle, can be pressed by hand. You insert the copper wire in the device and cut it at the device length, then use the little hammer to press down the wire to get the specific tip form required for this type of soldering pistol.
