I'm not gonna lie, that's a sexy soldering work station.
Thanks!
Awesome! I’m so in love with my TS100. Best iron I ever used.
It is indeed incredible that an open source, 50$ Design can compete with a 400$ german-made Weller station.
I've been lurking around these parts for a while, not sure which of my prints to post as my first post, but I saw u/Fauxhican's TS100 base station and wanted to post my version of the same thing.
If anyone wants them, I'll share the files, but it's made for a pretty specific combination of soldering iron, tip cleaner and solder roll.
EDIT: I finally got around to posting the files on Thingiverse.
I think I like that more than mine, actually. Your use of copper is much more elegant. If it had a place for the power supply, I’d probably use yours instead.

Well, I don't think that combination is uncommon at all! I got the same soldering iron, the exact same tip cleaner (got it from china for like 2$) and my mini fluxer fits nicely into the spot at the back, so a huge thanks for sharing!
Wow that is awesome. That looks really clean and professional!
Just to let you know the area where you are supporting the iron with copper doesn't get hot. You could model it in pla and it would work.
I use this stand out of pla all the time and it is in the same condition as the day I printed it. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2542802
I know that now, but didn't when I designed the thing :) Thanks anyway!
If I may ask, what power supply do you use with your TS100?
I actually use an rc battery with this adapter

I've never actually used the power supply that came with it from amazon.
Wow, awesome, somebody actually put those up on Amazon.
