IC Lead Straightener

thingiverse

This is a handy tool designed specifically for accurately shaping an IC chip's leads, ensuring that each leg is straight and perfectly perpendicular to the body of the chip. The result is chips that can be effortlessly inserted into their designated sockets. To use this tool, simply guide the chip down the precision-cut groove until it reaches the end of the channel, where its leads will naturally bend into place, achieving a precise and uniform shape.
