Hi everyone,

A quick update for those of you who have been following the Solder Ninja Pen here on Hackaday: the Crowd Supply campaign was successfully funded, the production run has been completed, and all pre-orders have shipped.

Which means the Solder Ninja Pen is in stock on Crowd Supply. No more waiting for the campaign, production, or fulfillment. If you were interested but wanted to wait until it was actually available, this is probably the right time to take another look.

It has been a long road from the early prototypes shown here on Hackaday to a real stocked product, with plenty of enclosure iterations, electronics revisions, firmware work, packaging, compliance, manufacturing, testing, and fulfillment adventures along the way. But it is out in the world, and customer feedback so far has been very positive, which is honestly a huge relief.

And if you have questions, want to share feedback, or want to follow future firmware and hardware updates, you are very welcome to join the Discord community.

Thanks again to everyone who followed, commented, backed, tested, or encouraged the project along the way. Seeing this move from an idea to something people are actually using on their benches is quite rewarding.
