A simple heat inserts jig, which I've made for my cheap soldering iron.
It consists of the following parts:
1. Base - 1 pc;
2. Rail - 1 pc;
3. Slider (tool holder) - 1 pc, it has holes for M3 screws, but they were not needed with my soldering iron;
4. Cap - 1 pc;
5. Elastic band holder - 2 pcs, optional, but required if you use elastic bands;
6. Box (bottom) -1 pc, optional;
7. Box tray - 1 pc, optional, can be used for storing heat inserts and soldering iron adapters;
8. TPU feet for the bottom - 4 pcs, optional;
9. Elastic bands - 2 or 3 pcs, optional, needed only if you need the tool to get to initial position.
You can use the jig perfectly fine without the optional parts. Nevertheless I think it will be more functional and good looking with all of them.
Important note: Using some kind of grease or oil on the rail is highly recommended.
I'll be happy if you give me some feedback and show my your prints.
