  • Great vid. I can understand why you would want to do this. But why are you spooling up solder? For your own personal use, or are you selling it on someplace else?

    The spools also look fabricated, did you print them yourself?

  • @nanakeyks We've been selling a surface mount soldering starter kit for over a year now that includes an ounce of Kester .02 63/37 solder. We're the only place you can buy Kester solder in quantities less than a lb, (a lb isn't very hobbyist friendly).

  • NICE

  • Great looks like, with a bit of coding, it could be also used to make coils, solenoid, etc

  • this...is...AWESOME!

  • @kenkassidy 2x on that... google didnt tell me crap...
