Digital Files License

The license for files included with this purchase permit you do download and print them, and also modify them for personal use, but you may not redistribute them, nor sell or trade printed parts.

Soldering Iron (Not Included)

For the soldering iron we recommend the Handskit 927 with the CNC Kitchen M900 Tips or Pencil + CNC Kitchen Inserts. The 927/Pencil is great as it doesn't require a separate base station, is adjustable in small increments, has a built in display and sleeps after a short period just in case you leave it on by accident. The correct size tips ensure your iron won't get stuck on the inserts too, a must have.

If you want to purchase a separate soldering iron, here are a few tips to help you get a suitable model.

  • Ensure it can reach around 300C or the melting point +30C of the plastic you want inserts pressed into.
  • Ensure the iron uses common exchangeable tips such as those by CNCKitchen.
  • Ensure it has accurate temperature control with read-out
  • Ensure the iron has an on/off switch.
  • Additionally soldering stations with removable soldering irons may be a useful option.

Grip Information:

  • The grip ideally needs to be printed from ABS and be just the right size for your soldering iron.
  • You get the Autodesk fusion CAD file (and common STLs) for the grip with your purchase as the grip itself is an open source design. We also have a database that stores common sizes for various soldering iron models so you can make it yourself in just the right size.
  • For the easiest route, we sell grips for the VLMP soldering iron (Handskit 927) made from ABS and guaranteed to work. If you have a grip from VLMP 1, this will work too.
  • Once you have a good grip size for your iron, be sure to share it to our database to help others too by filling in this form.
