I’ve bought Pine64 products before (pinephone and recently the pinetime) but I’ve heard Zach Freedman (void star labs) mention this before and rave about it. I wanted to hear from the ergo community what they thought about it before I bought one to start my keyboard building journey.

In addition, if I should buy one, what tips do you recommend be purchased? It looks like I can buy long/short versions of fine/gross tips. What’s best for keyboard building? Here’s a link to their pinecil products.

    All the recent keyboard work I have done with the Pinecil and it’s great. I use both a pointed tip and a chisel tip. The pointed tip is nice for most PCB work, the chisel for things like hand wiring.
