Hi, Just a note of thanks to everybody who answered my question regarding SMD Soldering witha miniture blow torch. In summary, it appears that it is practical to use the hot-air nozzel for soldering SMDs. It is also possible to use normal ovens, possibly cheap toaster ovens. I'll report back once I've tried it. Thanks again, Peter. -- _______________________________________________________________________ Peter Homann email: peterh@adacel.com.au Work : +61 3 9596-2991 Adacel Pty Ltd Fax : +61 3 9596-2960 250 Bay St, Brighton 3186, VIC, AUSTRALIA Mobile : 014 025-925
