How To Make Wire Soldering Iron

There are advantages to using a soldering iron like this.

How to make wire soldering iron. Take the copper tip 1 a piece of 710 cm of 345 mm diameter copper rod and roll the insulator over it on about 4 cm. You can see that the soldering iron would start working. Do it as shown in the photo.

Part 1 and part 2. This video shows how to make a simple soldering iron using easily available materials. Take the iron rod and make a dent between it so that the lead gets a base.

It is not a long-term solution though. You want to make it thin enough that it heats up fast but not so thin that it burns in half or bends too easily. Hold the soldering iron against the bottom of the splice to heat the flux.

Attach one end of the heater nichrome wire about 0305 mm diameter near the sharp end 3 and start winding it over the insulation to make the heater resistor 4. You can use this super hot soldering iron for soldering thick wires and all other heavy duty needs. Lay the wire on a hard surface preferably an anvil or block of steel Pound this part of the wire flat.

Once the flux starts bubbling you can begin adding solder. Get a piece of iron like an old raid road spike. Starting the soldering task and as I told we need first to set the soldering iron tip and then we heat it up once its ready to use you can notice that the soldering wire is molten easily.

A 12V 20A DC adapter is used as power source here. Hold the two tinned wires on top of each other and touch the soldering iron to both wires. Hold it on the wire for 3-4 seconds.
