Re: automatic solder sponge moistener


 

:-)
You have a real passion for "automatic things" :-)

Bottle with a hose attached leading into the sponge is a good ideea,
but think about a "puf-puf" bottle, like those for liquid soap or
window cleaner.
This way, you simply push a button or press a lever to release a
precise quantity of water.

How could one build something like that?

either a bottle with a hose attached leading into the sponge so i
only
need to press the bottle, or even something as crazy as a contacts
for
sensing moisture and that peristaltic pump i took out of the broken
inkjet...

I already have a small bottle to drip distilled water onto the
sponge, but
i'm still annoyed if i find it dry...

It should not be permanently (like a wick leading into a water
container)
because i may not use the iron for days in a row and i don't want
the
thing to grow moldy.

Any ideas?
