abacom ezpick and other manual pick and place tools

Postby bcoggs » Tue Aug 16, 2011 11:11 am

Hi,

I am looking for opinions on low-cost ( < $2k ) tools to aid manual pick and place. Here is a $600 commercial solution:

And here is a homebrew imitation:

I don't have the time to perfect a homebrew version, and I don't mind spending the $ on the commercial version. I am just looking for some opinions.

TIA
