Default Re: SMDs and stripboard

If you'd like a bit of fine gauge solderable enamelled wire to play with (used by me for just such a problem with an integrated fly speck, I'll pop some in the post.

A 10A scalpel to hold the b*****s down while you solder the first pin to a pretinned pad PCB is useful, the remaining pins can then be flooded and wicked as described or individually soldered if not too fine a pitch.
