The Factory | New Pulse-Soldering Machine

Assembling the PiicoDev OLED module is challenging! It requires a lot of skill to hand solder the FFC connector which takes a long time. This week in #TheFactory we show off the new Pulse-Soldering machine we'll use for future production runs - what else can we use it for? We also respond to some user-feedback to help make PiicoDev as good as it can be.
