    Forget Steampunk and Cyberpunk, I'm dubbing this guerrilla style of building Kampfpunk. 😁 Turning found objects into art isn't new, but the way you continually turn found items, mostly from your own expansive collection, into pieces of lovely functional art is something special. My Pinecil soldering iron is already designed to run on DC power. I'll have to see what interesting junk I have lying around to try and build a station like this of my own. Happy New Year and thanks for sharing!

    Hi Laura, I have made a lot of solder stations through my seventy years on this earth and they have all been plug in types as the batteries to power these things have not been around for long, but your engineer prowess and flair for the unexpected has come up with yet another brilliant idea. I can hardly wait until I can get into my shed (no heating) and see what I can find. Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and your helpers.

    CZcams is such a good luck charm. I love how steel sections pulled out of junk piles have clean shiny ends and the first attempt at trying anything slots together so well. Not only was that "][" section the right width and length it also had a clean cut end. Maybe it's the hip funk music that makes it all happen. I have to walk around with a measuring tape and clean rust off my junk pile stuff.

    I love the fact that you mention you're being inspired by other makers, but downplay how you've totally redesigned it to be your own with things that fit your style and work process and existing tools and shop. The way your materials just happen to work together was awesome! I think that's a big part of the fact that you curate stuff that is "you" and not just any trash. I mean look at your projects and how you have such a unique "feel" to them!

    I was in awe as you were picking random pieces for this project and they all fit together. It's like the project came together of it's own accord.

      @SpaceMarshalGyorni Před 2 lety +4

      @@ADBBuild Doesn't that very much depend on what you're soldering? If your workpiece has a lot of heat capacity, the iron will have to work much harder to keep the temperature stable.

    • @ADBBuild
      @ADBBuild Před 2 lety +1

      @@SpaceMarshalGyorni I haven't used one of these irons, so I can say for sure, but I'd bet it is on all the time unless maybe it was sitting for a while. It probably doesn't even have the ability to "throttle" the power and is just constantly on like basic plug-in irons.
      So in your example, since the iron is always at the max it can output, it would just get colder, not "work harder" as you are saying.

    • @dylanevans5644
      @dylanevans5644 Před 2 lety +3

      ​@@ADBBuild
      It really depends how much she stepped up the voltage. It looks like a TS100, and you are close in your guess - it draws about 2.7amps. This iron also works from 12 - 24v, the higher the voltage the better the overall wattage/power/heat delivery. If she stepped it up to 24v then it would be pulling over 3.6amps from the battery (especially after considering power conversion efficiency).
      Not that this all matters that much, as the iron auto sleeps and you would still be looking at around an hour (assuming this is a Festool 18v 4Ah battery) which is quite a lot for most soldering projects.

    "Don't do this. It's probably not allowed, and it might fry your battery."
    Good warning! The biggest risk, aside accidentally shorting out the battery, is over-discharging the battery, which is really bad for lithium-ion batteries. Some batteries have protective circuitry built into the batteries, while some manufacturers build it into the tools instead. If your batteries have discharge testers on them, keep an eye on them. To be safer, you can look up how to make a simple over-discharge protection circuit, or you can buy one for $10-15 and add it to your DIY adapter.
