Having searched the archives without success, can anyone suggest a good way to do vias on smt double sided boards in low volume production .... Most of my stuff is single sided hand soldered, but I have a short run of two sided with half a dozen vias needed on each densely packed board For prototypes I just use scrap from led legs otherwise discarded, and soldered both sides, but something faster is needed with a few hundred vias to do.
