Step 2: Demolish That Littel Pen!!!
WE all no that every instructable you need to be able to take apart or demolish something.... Well its time to do it to a pen!!
Ok well unscrew the pen adn then pull out all the ink cartridges (i left one in to try and make it drawable while i work. It didnt work very gud).
OPTIONS: IF your pen don't screw out then i dunno chop it or somthing.. You are all smart people just use ya brain ;) Soz my com wont swap the pictures to the right order sorry :P

Step 3: Solder Time :P
OK now choose your dif size solder and then you can either place straight into it like i did. Or you can use blue tac to make it stronger down bottom or if u can find somethign thin coil it up so you don't have to refil after evry use.
rememebr this sint the most versotile way of despensing solder but if u can coil it and git it to work it should go well. and hopefully people will add onto this idea so we have the best solder pen despenser lol >:)

Step 4: Finish It Up
