Soldering wires made a lot easr..
I seen this on a website and taught it might come in handy, so without further ado I decide I could make my own up just as good..
It didn’t take long before I had something that would work, and it took just 2 hours to print, later I tried it and it done exactly what it said on the tin....Perfect...

Good idea. I never thought of that before.
Being a lazy old fart, no need to bother with openscad this time. One of the many remixes from thingiverse will do. :p
I think PETg is better than PLA here. More resistent to heat and flexible enough to retain the wires better than rigid PLA.

What heat..? The wires are been soldered, not the Feckin holder.. PLA is just Grand..;)

Thanks for the offer. :)
Maybe I'll ask your STL one of these days because right now I'm back logged, so to speak, with printing jobs.

P.S.
I know that this is for soldering wires, but in case by mishandling the solder tip goes near the plastic, PLA will be deformed and melted before PETg. Flexibility is a bonus too.
