I’ve bought Pine64 products before (pinephone and recently the pinetime) but I’ve heard Zach Freedman (void star labs) mention this before and rave about it. I wanted to hear from the ergo community what they thought about it before I bought one to start my keyboard building journey.
In addition, if I should buy one, what tips do you recommend be purchased? It looks like I can buy long/short versions of fine/gross tips. What’s best for keyboard building? Here’s a link to their pinecil products.
It’s a fantastic tool!
The price is frankly almost unbelievable for the value you get
I don’t really use my far more expensive soldering station anymore, the Pinecil works for everything I do and it runs off the same battery I use as a backup for my phone/laptop
