Assembly tools

Tools you may need

This is the tool list for the DIY build.

Named in the build guide

• 3D printer and PLA, for the panel parts on Parts to 3D print
• Flush cutters
• Wire strippers, small screwdriver, and multimeter
• Soldering iron and solder only if headers or wire leads are not already fitted
• Computer with a data-capable micro-USB cable
• Serial Monitor in Arduino IDE 2.x, for the first pressure reading

Also named for those steps

• A slicer, for base_panel.STEP, pump_holder.STEP, and valve_bracket.STEP. It opens STEP files directly. There are no STL or slicer project files for those parts yet.
• A slicer or mesh viewer, for the sensing-tube STL files.
• Arduino IDE 2.x, for Install on the Firmware page. Assembly Step 04 sends the DIY build there.
• git, for the manual library install (git clone of ThingPlusBLEOSC) in that section.
