Flux and Solder Paste Dispenser

This is a remix of the cool Thingiverse project of mordaha that I optimized for my requirements in the following terms:

  • used 2x M3x20 screws as lever axles instead of 1x M3 screw and 1x filament
  • levers have a bit more space to each other to move more easily
  • added grip area for more precise dispensing
  • added channels on big lever and main part for a rubber band or o-ring
  • added fixture for an optional spring between small and big lever (outer diameter: 10mm / inner diameter 8mm), model works also quite well without the spring
  • added two big lever versions with FLUX and PASTE marking beside a neutral one

Printing parameters

  • layer height is not critical, I used 0,3mm
  • for the piston I recommend at least 10mm brim and 3 outer perimeters to prevent stability issues
  • no supports needed
  • best printed in PLA

For the complete dispenser you need to print 4 parts:

  • main part
  • one of the big levers (choose fitting to your needs)
  • small lever
  • piston

I added a syringe needle cap, to easily close and open broached syringes without the need to disassemble the needle. The cap also is a remix, the original was too short for my needles.
