    definitly an update...

    did you real calculations on the strength of the material or is that just well estimated?
    (whats the weight of you box empty?)

    Hi derbaum!

    I didn’t need to calculate the portico of case. In fact, nobody needs to do that. By knowing this material and a bit of engineering, you will be able to estimate correctly the best lighter building and avoid wasting material. Sorry, I think I have lost this information and if I find I post for you. Thanks!

    It’s also an invention of mine: I cut a thin aluminum shape with the same size of the soldering iron. After that, I fold it in the middle creating an angle rule. Doing that, I just fixed it on the soldering iron by using screws. Got it?
