Idea

The new hard soldering tool in the Hot Metal Area doesn't have a place or holder for the torch.

Creation Steps / Process

Since the tip of the torch is to hot for any printable material this side is supported by a long screw connected to the wall. The side of the handle is hold by a small holder made with PETG to withstand residual warmth that is slit on two screws similar to other wall mounted objects you may have seen.

Learnings

Similar to the projects I did in parallel (Project:Press Tool for Headset Cups Holder and Project:Metal Lathe Thread Gears Organizer), this one showed me another possibility of metal hardware supporting printed models. Also this mounting system was a first for me: printing it without supports is the better choice since the material is very hard to remove from inside otherwise.
