How To Make A Solder Gun

I bought a Weller model WP25 for PCPC back 17 years ago and they use it almost everyday and it still works.

How to make a solder gun. Make sure the conection of the pen-straw-stick on the lighter you can turn on with fire. In use the tip leads go on either side of the connection to be soldered. Even better is when you have one lying around in your toolbox somewhere A screw.

The soldering tips are simply made from thick copper wire sculpted into the correct shape. If using a torch hold the torch tip at least 4 to 6 inches 102 to 152 cm away from the parent metal. The device must create a stream of hot air with a temperature of up to 800 C with a heating element power of at least 25 kW.

If you managed to build it now you must attach this heater to a handle. Youll have to attach the metal pipe to a washer 7 that will be fixed with some screws 9 and spacers 8 to the handle 10. Weve been using soldering Irons for container holes for years.

Twist the wire round. Note the light will come on and the tip should begin to heat immediately. For our project here we can use the most basic model.

A direct flame on the repair area is likely to overheat the solder and flux. Then when the trigger is pulled current will flow through the joint to generate enough localized heat to permit the application of solder - faster than would be possible with the ordinary tip. Solder the coil in series with the soldering gun trigger and the capacitor.

Step One The Parts The very first thing we will need is a desoldering iron. If its hot enough the solder will quickly flow down the wire. In order to empty.
