Received - what speedy service! Need to get my header pins for the Pi Zer0 2 and I will be ready to give it a whirl!

Many thanks!
Don't forget to solder them pins to the proper side of your RPi! (The back side) :)

Edit: As of today there are two (2) boards remaining for sale. This will be the last batch of A314-cp from me, as I will now focus on developing the A314 line of hardware further. ;)
Thank you to all buyers, and I hope this and other A314-related devices have enhanced your Amiga experience!

A bit late, but nice for the future visitors looking for an easy way to solder the header on without needing to solder. The plastic you see is removed after its used to insert the self locking header pins. No Solder! I am sure you can find these cheaper, Peroni makes these kits as well.

I would use a vise to press the header into place, as opposed to using a hammer. The reason is that hammer blows are quite powerful in the amount of energy they deliver, in a very short amount of time. This energy displacement doesn't go just in to the pins, but traverse through the PCB, possibly causing stress cracks, and will propagate into chips and other fragile components.
A simple soldering iron/pen is half the price of the suggested method. But sure, I understand that not everybody feels comfortable with soldering. So if you choose the method above, please be careful. And if possible, rather press than strike.
