Yes! it's a very nice feature. It doesn't replace a dedicated pick up tool for large jobs but it's great for a small batch of boards or single prototypes.
Hi! Very cool build! A few thoughts: 1. Have you tried using it with cyanoacrylate and accelerators? (Among other, more common applications, they are being used, more and more, alongside regular wood glue for assembling woodworking projects. they act as a clamp to hold the work together while the wood glue dries, so mechanical clamps aren't needed.) 2. As Luer-locks can be used with IV lines, can you test to see if reloading of fluids like glue can be done by inserting a piece of IV line/etc. into the bottom of a container of glue and then sucking it up into the syringe? That would make reloading *SO* much more convenient.
Hello Keith, thanks for your comments. Yes, I've used it with all kinds of adhesives including cyanoacrylates. You just need to be careful to prevent the tip from drying up and blocking the syringe. Also you're right regarding the IV line or small tubing for easier refilling, I should try it out. I don't know if it would work well for pastes, but it shouldn't be a problem for low viscosity adhesives, good idea for a future accessory. Cheers!
@@pira_mx Cool! Thanks for the update. BTW, I linked to your project in this *awesome* video on CNC'ed inlays (th-cam.com/video/FCO9VWLjgvc/w-d-xo.html) and suggest that he add it to his workflow, so he could more easily place exactly as much glue needed, exactly where it is needed, and, perhaps, placing tiny inlay pieces. I hope that he does follow up on it. (You can find my comment near the top if you want to add to the conversation.)
You probably dont give a damn but does any of you know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account?? I somehow forgot the password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me
@Elisha Arturo i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process now. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
This looks to be a very nicely-developed dispenser that can operate without a bulky and/or noisy air compressor. Given that this is especially suited for prototyping and small production runs, do you have any plans for a model that fits directly to 10cc syringes in which common 35g quantities of solder paste are sold? I realize that the video demonstrated how to fill the big syringe from a small one, but that's an extra step, and exposes the paste to air a little. Of most concern, I assume the big syringe needs a certain minimum amount of paste near the tip to operate at all, when you may only want to apply a little bit of paste. And by the time you use it again, that "minimum amount" may no longer be usable, so has to be discarded.
Hello, yes I've thought about using the existing 10cc syringes but unfortunately there's not a standard shape that all paste manufacturers use, furthermore the included piston is not designed to interface with the motor leadscrew so it would need to be changed anyway... more hassle than just transferring the paste to another syringe. You're correct in that a small amount is needed at the needle/tip to start the flow, but the kit includes a small rubber cap which can be used to prevent the solder at the tip from drying out. This allows you to leave the tip in place and re-start dispensing at a later date with zero waste.
@@pira_mx Is "another syringe" some standard one that can be bought anywhere? (need to transferring paste/flux, need to take out label from original syringe and put on custom one etc is something that makes me to look for other, very low volume, "hobby" targeted solutions currently). Edit: ok, I see that syringes are not enough. Would need to have few piston holders, too.
@@arekx Hello! yes the fluid you want to dispense needs to be transferred to the 30cc syringe. You can certainly buy them on places like eBay or Amazon, however you'll only find them in bulk: boxes of 20pcs and with caps sold separately. If you need smaller quantities I do sell them on my store with caps included. And finally regarding the piston holder, there's no need to have one per syringe, since you can swap out the actual plunger (the part that is in contact with the material) when changing the barrel. Most customers find that the two included holders are enough for their needs. Cheers!

Whoa, pick-and-place mode too? Nice.

@@KeithOlson Thanks! I'll be checking it out.
This is a fantastic product for the price and craftsmanship! What an amazing presentation!

Amazing best buy i have made in long time steve be
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it
es bellisimo!
For v3, definitely go USB-C!
Yes of course, that will be out very soon
