Weller Soldering Iron Tips Holder

thingiverse

The WLC100 soldering iron is a favorite among many users. However, those who've purchased replacement tip sets for this model often struggle with keeping them organized. The large flat area behind the controls on the soldering station provides an ideal spot for storing tips and small parts. This print serves as a practical solution by attaching to the back of the station behind the controls, allowing up to 6 tips and other tiny items to be stored in its pocket. Its design doesn't obstruct the vents, and the angled placement of the tips makes them easier to view while sitting down. There's some flexibility in the holes, which don't hold the tips tightly. In regular use, they shouldn't fall out, but if the station is moved around, they might come loose. If this becomes a problem, the holes can be extruded completely through to minimize movement. I used TECKE tips designed for this size and found that most ST series tips will fit as well due to its standard dimensions. For best results, print the top on the build plate, which is how I made the one shown above. Using supports might also be possible.
