<p>This design is based on Adafruit's orginal jig: <a href="https://learn.adafruit.com/heat-set-rig">https://learn.adafruit.com/heat-set-rig</a></p> <p>I had some 3030 aluprofile pieces at home so at first I decided to fit the original design. Later on I have:</p> <ul> <li>changed the carriage mount</li> <li>dropped the lever</li> <li>remodelled the upper pulley</li> <li>redesigned the tool clamp to be compatible with my Hakko FX-8801 soldering tool</li> <li>added a wire mount clamp on the top</li> </ul> <p>BOM:</p> <ul> <li>a Hakko FX-8801 soldering tool (you can use any other tool but in this case you have to remodel the inside cutout of the clamp as it was designed to be a tight fit with my Hakko FX-8801)</li> <li>a piece of wood baseplate in ~250x300 mm size</li> <li>1 pc M3x20 bolt for the upper pulley (no M3 nut needed)</li> <li>1 pc M3x25 bolt for locking the tool clamp (no M3 nut needed)</li> <li>4 pcs M3 heat-set insert for the trapezoid arm (I have used the ones from Ruthex's excellent inserts: <a href="https://www.amazon.nl/-/en/dp/B08BCRZZS3/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;keywords=ruthex&amp;qid=1613643272&amp;sr=8-1">https://www.amazon.nl/-/en/dp/B08BCRZZS3/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;keywords=ruthex&amp;qid=1613643272&amp;sr=8-1</a> )</li> <li>2+2 pcs M3x8 Allen head bolts to mount the carriage and the tool clamp to the trapezoid arm</li> <li>4 pcs M4 bolts or similar size screws to attach the bottom part to a baseplate</li> <li>2+1+1 pcs M4x10 bolts for the M4 T-nuts</li> <li>2+1+1 pcs M4 T-nuts to attach the bottom base, the upper cap and the limiter part to the 3030 aluprofile (the bottom / top locks are optional as the design is a tight fit)</li> <li>~500 mm string for connecting the carriage to the counterweight</li> </ul> <p>Feel free to alter the design: <a href="http://penoff.hu/Fusion360/heat%20set%20insert%20installation%20stand%20v44.f3d">http://penoff.hu/Fusion360/heat%20set%20insert%20installation%20stand%20v44.f3d</a></p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><p>All the parts are designed to print without supports. The top "cap.stl" is the only one which requires some bridging but I think it is still manageable without adding support structures.</p>
