Arctic retro | Making a 3D-printed IC pin straightener @Arcticretro | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
Just a short out of schedule video where I make an IC pin straightener.
This is a handy tool to straighten the pins on chips so that they fit into sockets.
This tool can be bought ready made, but since I have a 3D printer I just made one.
Of course not as good as the professional product, but good enough for occasional use
