If you have seen National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and remember Clark trying to read a magazine
after doing battle with the Christmas tree, that's me with SMT parts stuck to my tweezers after using
liquid flux on SMT boards.  What am I doing wrong??????????????

If you flux after placing the parts then they stick to the flux brush.
I guess one of those little flux syringe doo hickies might be better but haven't picked one up yet.

If you flux first (which is great to hold the part) then it seems that a little flux always wicks up on to the
end of the tweezers. In the TSSOP soldering thread someone mentioned using paste flux. Thoughts?

thanks
