FreeCAD screenshot of the jig. There are two halves, hinged in the middle. The “top” is on the left, C-shaped cutout where the screen goes, with various pockets, and holes in the corners. The “bottom” is on the right, more bare frame in construction, with matching holes, alignment pegs that match holes in the top, and an extra panel on the right that holds a rectangular display in place on three sides.

More Tangara jig stuff! I’ve been working on the faceplate+display solder and stick-down jig.
With this version, you:
- Put the PCB in the cradle to the left, the display upside-down in the holder on the right, and solder down the ribbon cable.
- Close the hinge, make sure the PCB is aligned by having the spring pins stick into the mounting holes.
- Take the paper off the adhesive strips, the flip the display over and down into the C-shaped hole.
(Last pic is of an earlier prototype.)
