Name | Required | Description |
---|---|---|
Soldering Iron (Knife Tip) + Solder Wire + Flux + Tweezers | Required | Used for soldering BMCU circuits. An adjustable temperature soldering station is recommended. |
Heating Table / Hot Air Gun + Solder Paste + Stencil | Optional | Since PCB pins are dense, these tools are recommended for easier soldering. |
3D Printer | Required | If you're making a BMCU, you likely already have a 3D printer xD |
PETG Filament | Recommended | Compared to PLA, PETG is more durable for printing the structure. Highly recommended. |
Transparent Filament | Required | For insertion into photoelectric vias for light guiding, Transparent PETG are preferred because of their higher opacity. You only need a little bit, so you may not need to buy 1kg. |
Phillips Screwdriver | Required | A 3mm screwdriver is recommended. |
Utility Knife / Craft Knife | Optional | Might have unexpected uses, such as clearing holes for optical sensors. |
Electric Drill / Rotary Tool | Required | Used for correcting misaligned holes in printed parts. |
You may need a long thin screwdriver similar to the one pictured below, as some of the holes in the BMCU have smaller passages.
