    You're right, it is brilliant! I subscribed to your channel after seeing how genius this is. The problem with all the drill press type designs out there is that if you've got a part wider than the capacity of the drill press, then you're just out of luck! Your idea here has a capacity that virtually cannot be exceeded with the size of prints that our machines are currently capable of printing. Thanks for sharing this great idea!

    This is real KIS - Keep It Simple.
    Best solution I found, no short distances, no special parts etc.
    And on top - the most inexpensive solution of all.

    Simple, elegant, inexpensive. I like it. Perfect if you're doing a project that requires a lot of inserts. Allows you to do your work sitting down comfortably instead of having to do it standing up and strain your neck. Only improvement I can think of is to modify the clamp to allow quick installation and removal of the soldering iron.

    Thanks for your brilliant idea. I did have a bit of a problem keeping the iron vertical so I eliminated the piece between the custom-made soldering Iron bracket and the arm. I designed the piece that holds the soldering iron so that it connects directly to the arm thus totally eliminating any possibility of rotating. Works great thanks again for the great idea.

    I've used tapping machines like this, great build! While the machinist in me likes how perpendicular a drill press style is, realistically this is way more practical for most uses

    This is absolutely phenomenal. I'm finally building a proper workshop and had a 10 year old mic stand like this I was ready to bin but this is a genius way of repurposing it. Thanks for sharing

  • @plan9203
    @plan9203 Před 2 lety +3

    I was going to go with the drill press style but, like you mentioned, I started to worry about how I would use it if I had an insert far away from the boundaries of the part. This is a very elegant and simple solution. Really Glad I found this.

  • @CordovaLabs
    @CordovaLabs Před 2 lety +4

    Even though I just built the Adafruit heat set insert tool, I am going to put one of these together as well. This definitely looks like a better product tool.

    Man… not only a fantastic idea, but excellent build techniques. Love the detailed thought process you revealed during the build. Hearing creatives like yourself explain flow is enlightening.
    Gives me an idea on my mini jeweler’s torch for silver solder and small melts. Quick… to the shop 😂

    Sweet! I made the drill press style version. I did not like it. It kept pulling the inserts back out when I would remove it. I'm going to have to make one of these!

    Have you thought about putting an adjustable stop on it so you can set each insert to an equal depth? Just a thought don’t know if you think it’s necessary.

    Hey just a friendly suggestion, pin the comment with the link for the printed part to the top of the comments or add it into the description took me a bit of scrolling to find it lol but this is an absolute genius thing you've go here and I just wish I found it before printing all the parts of the one that uses the 2020 extrusion.

    thats cool but never understood why people need gadgets like these. I just hand hold the iron and never once was I so far off that a screw didnt work afterwards.
