“I watched the video, fixed the male header onto my pi zero, fixed the female onto my envirophat, put them together, plugged it in and it worked!! And I didn't even bash my thumb.
What would make it even better is a colour-coded male header option.
ps I've ordered more”
“Arrived quickly, I received the 2nd version of this, with the black metal screws. There is a difference between the you tube video and the way the MK2 jig works, although instructions have now been added to the worksheet, some pictures would be nice.
The only minor complaint (hence 4 stars) is the thickness of the plastic strips used to protect the pins from the hammer is slightly too thick, this could just be that i did not force the male header far enough down on the PI, however it did prevent the screws from being affixed to the bottom of the jig until a cautionary couple of hits with a hammer pushed the pins in far enough for the screws to be attached.”
“Am new to this Pi revolution and electronics in general, the thought of soldering had me more than a little worried about breaking my new Pi ZeroW.
However, watched the Vid an two minutes later had mine done to perfection.
Great idea, great components, expert advise”
“I've often used a hammer as a screw driver. This is the first time I've used a hammer instead of a soldering iron!
I'd been wary of the Pi Zero and its HATs not fancying all the precise soldering that would be required.
The GPIO Hammer Header has enabled me to build the Pimoroni Pirate Radio kit without touching a soldering iron...!
I'll be back for more Pi Zero's, HATs and hammer headers...”
“As I am a big noob in soldering, I bought this. This is a great idea it take less than 1 minute and it works perfectly.
Really thank you for this great idea Pimoroni !”
