Most of my soldering nowadays is done peering down a binocular
microscope.Â* If I have to do more than I can manage to hold my breath

I ended up going with Mr. Horton's solution as I also made the "5 layer"
device and added an activated carbon layer as well using a spare,
non-functional fan as containment. Device works pretty darn well. I
haven't done any soldering yet, but it has done a remarkable job just
cleaning the air in one of the bedrooms.

Sounds like someone does surface mount soldering. I attempted it once
and the result was disaster and haven't done so since.
