Review on πŸ”§βœ¨ Flexible Electronics Modeling Industrial Power & Hand Tools with Soldering Magnifying Abilities by Robert Gilbert

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The problem with the center of gravity and more fragile than I expected

The base plate doesn't weigh enough to hold the entire device in a stable position, so it's quite wobbly during operation. The flexible arms are attached to the baseplate in such a way that you don't want to squeeze them for fear of cracking the plastic, but they wiggle too much unless you're medieval. A CG problem unless you can find a way to attach the baseplate to the workbench with straps or screws.

Pros
  • welding and soldering
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
