Custom Heat-Set Threaded Insert Tools (For my Hakko!)

  • This has been at the top of my list of things to make for when I get a lathe. Well I have one now, so I had to make it! I've been using the pointed soldering tip for too long. Sometimes it would get stuck in the threaded inserts and pull them back out. This will make life much easier.

    Really cool, I love using heat-set inserts too! Please be careful around the lathe. I highly recommend not wearing gloves, rings, watches when running a lathe.

      I feel okay in these nitrile gloves since they will easily tear, however fabric gloves are a no-no.

    I am gonna try to make an M3 size one out of an old soldering tip in my drill press with a file. I don't have a lathe so I'm hoping this will work. Incidentally, you were the reason I got into 3d printing (kind of) I found your video about 3d printing a shop vac duct for the dewalt table saw , took your file to my local library, and printed it. I now have 2 3d printers , one is an Anet a8 (well, most of the parts from the original a8 ) lol. Thanks!

    I just recently discovered that heat-set inserts were a thing and have really been digging them. It's pretty sweet that you made your own tips. I picked mine from Amazon, but they were fairly expensive!

    Hakko soldering irons are so awesome, I have two: an FX-888D for leaded rework, and an FX-951 for lead-free work. And yes, there’s nothing like a good shop apron to help keep shavings out of the house.

    I love how the can of WD-40 just moves around on the vibrations. Also, I do it with a simple long bolt and a lighter, it gets kinda hot on the fingers sometimes, but I have a spare soldering iron, maybe I should make something similar. Great idea.

    [00:49] You can mod it to auto-adjust temperature with custom temperature control circuit. It could be an interesting project for a future video, especially if you will show different approaches to how it could be done.

    Good job, what temperature do you recommend for inserting one of these inserts into pla?

    • @SeanHodgins
      @SeanHodgins  3 года назад +3

      I find around 230C to be quick enough and not liquefy the plastic.

    • @SeanHodgins
      @SeanHodgins  2 года назад +2

      I normally do 450F if I’m not in a rush as that will give the best results. It’s a great iron!

    how the hell do you get the insert tip to stay on the weller or get it inside the tube thing, i put it over the normal tip like a sleeve and it just falls off when upside down. i opened it up from the 3 screws, how do i get it inside without breaking it?

    • @SeanHodgins
      @SeanHodgins  Год назад

      On the Hakko the sleeve tapers in at the ends so it physically clamps down on the tip when you tighten the sleeve down.
