It must have been well over 40 years ago when I realised humans should really have been designed with 3 hands to solder wires - one each for wire, iron, and solder.
 
At the time I only had 2 hands, so to get around this failing I thought of a method where the solder automatically feeds itself into the joint. Like most of my ideas, it's simple and fairly obvious.

I've just uploaded an Instructable about it and the youtube video is linked from there.

All comments are welcome!

It arrived in my YouTube recommends yesterday. I liked it but I cannot subscribe. Keep up the good work.
