@robin1337 I can't believe someone is buying the #pixelpump pre assembled. I have a shit load of fun putting mine together myself. The instructions are just great. If I didn't have to keep waiting for the 3D printer...

It's such a pleasure to work with great equipment. Askania SMT4 microscope, Leica Flexacam C5, Robin's tools pixelpump, SIS Licht Maschinenleuchte. PCB by AISLER.

K2 tut sich nun beim SMD-Bestücken leichter ... #PixelPump mit SMD-Magazinhalter und Fußtaster

Might be time to make some PCBs again (and finally try the #pixelpump on a real project!), but I left my vacuum jig in the other fablab. Good occasion to iterate on the design and simplify out all the parts that didn't work or were unnecessary :)
