well, I do think hammering is not user friendly

This device is really nice and no offence to the Pimoroni's guys but it was even easier to use than in the demo video :D.

Great way to attach the header without soldering! Takes a bit of careful hammering but quite straightforward

A must have to safely attach the solderless male or female headers.

I tried fitting a couple these (male and female) with the Jig, both with limited success. In the first instance not all the pins went into the holes, a couple pushed back through the plastic so they did not give good contact so had to solder them anyway. In the second case I got all good contacts but the pins were bent. The pins on these hammer headers are not as strong as the solderable ones and seem to be easily bent. Also frequent removal and replacement of my hats soon bends them too. I'm not sure I'll bother with them again, as they are just not strong enough. Guess I'll have to learn to solder.
