Members AstroZon Posted March 13, 2013 Members Share Posted March 13, 2013 I've soldered everything from batteries to ICs and repaired traces on PCBs, but I've never seen anyone drop in a 96 leg IC with such ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members delaware dave Posted March 14, 2013 Members Share Posted March 14, 2013 1 hour ago I just finished soldering the wires on an iron and a hair dryer. Does that count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wesg Posted March 14, 2013 Members Share Posted March 14, 2013 Wow, that guy's pretty quick. The only way I've tried to solder QFPs is with solder paste and a toaster oven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members shambler Posted March 14, 2013 Members Share Posted March 14, 2013 He completely fluxxed that one up! And what's soddering, I though we were soldering? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AstroZon Posted March 14, 2013 Author Members Share Posted March 14, 2013 Toasters, Hair Dryers, it's all just a matter of scale. I remember de-soldering a Juno 106 voice board once. It has those solder-through-hole ICs, and they're really a pain to get out without melting everthing around them. I just soldered up a guitar yesterday - swapped pickups, pots, and caps. Took about 2 hours start to finish. I want something grundgy sounding for a Shoegaze project I'm working on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
