I bought a cheap pen, maybe the same as the other poster, to help weld things together. Turns out I have no skills, and it looks bad. As a whole for me, 3d pens are annoying to use.
When you need to weld two 3d printed parts together, try Weld-On 3. It comes with a hypodermic applicator. Press the parts tight together, then drip some Weld-On 3 in the seam. The liquid is a strong solvent that dissolves the surface of both pieces, but within a minute the parts are welded together. It's the BEST way to weld two 3d printed parts together I have ever used. Use in a well ventilated area.
