“So quick and easy to do - just follow the video.
My soldering is not very good but this was perfect to get my Pi Zero up and running.
Also feels much safer than soldering.
Just one suggestion - are you planning to make a single row socket header (say for adafruit Capacitive touch hat)?”
“Relatively easy to use product that helps placing GPIO headers, cheap solution for a one time use if you don't have soldering gear. Only downside is that the acrylic part that sits on top breaks easily (and I hammered gently). Very important to keep that piece steady and leveled with the pins while hammering. It has more to do with that than being gentle (I guess I wouldn't have broken anything if I paid more attention to leveling)”
“Love these little beauties! Takes but a few seconds to hammer them in, and if you change your mind (or fit the wrong one - ahem) you just jiggle a plectrum around a bit and bingo! it's off again! Brilliant!
I'll deffo be using these things again, what's not to like.
Oh, parcel arrived super-quick btw and the free Pimoroni coaster was a nice touch too, thanks!”
“Was tired of soldering half a dozen of the headers onto Zero Ws, so got a couple of these.
On first installation broke one of the acrylic installation pieces because of hammering on it. :(
Now I have a couple of hammer headers, but no installation jig. And I swear I was gentle with the hammering!
Anyways, this is an amazing product if used carefully!”
“This is a must for anyone getting a Pi Zero, W. I purchased the rig and a Pi Zero W at the same time.
Get the rig and a Pi Zero and you are good to go with any project. Following the video and pausing it while I carried out each easy to follow step was perfect for putting this together.
I need need my first aid kit, the pins are sharp! However minor flesh wound aside, this does exactly what it needs todo. The rig of course can be re-used, which is great.”
