Desoldering Tweezers

Here is a new desoldering tweezer tool I just made, it's rough and there will be improvements, very likely. It looks kind of dangerous, but it's really low voltage, under a volt, barely enough to register on my digital voltmeter.

These tools cost hundreds of dollars if you want to buy them somewhere, but I made mine out of cheap radio shack parts and junk. The power supply is also homebuilt, which I also use for my hot air pencil . In the lower part of the photo, what looks like sawdust, is a bunch of resistors that I desoldered in just a few minutes.
