Jig used to align switches while soldering the Smaller Simone Giertz's Good Habit Tracker Hackaday.io project here: https://hackaday.io/project/78869-smaller-simone-giertzs-good-habit-tracker Not my project but I wanted to make my own boards and designed this tool to help me in alignment of the switches while soldering since unlike the designer I do not have scraps of laser cut plywood.
Print. Place the switches on the PCB with the actuators in all the same direction. Place the jig over the switches. Hold the jig while flipping the board over then place it on the table before soldering. Solder only one pin for each switch so that if there are any alignment issues (I didn't have any) you can easily fix it.
