You don't have a proper desolder tool, then? ;-) I have several solder suckers. In close quarters sometimes solder wick does the trick, and it always works. I've got one of those big blue nasty things, and a couple of smaller aluminum solder suckers. In close quarters I still find myself reach for the solder wick. None of those little solder suckers compare to a real properly functioning desoldering station. When I spent a summer working at a fiends stereo repair shop we had the Hako deoldering stations and I could desolder blown output modules faster than you could even uncoil your solder wick. Bet you didn't pay for the desoldering station, though. Wick is my go-to for surfacemount, the Soldapullt for thru-hole and terminals. If production were an issue, revenue would buy best-available tools. These get 'er done for me. |
