Abstract

A self feeding soldering device includes a soldering device; a solder feed mechanism carried on the soldering device; and a solder system controller in controlling connection with the soldering device and the solder feed mechanism. The solder feed mechanism allows the user to control the feed of solder wire onto the heated soldering tip of the soldering device or the area adjacent to the heated soldering tip to be soldered to free one hand of the user to secure the objects to be soldered.
