Paul;
When you say "Wave Solder", are you talking the commercial production board lines, or some type of "prototype" process.  I'm a hobbyist, familar with the production assembly line/wave machines.  Is there a wave soldering availalbe for small runs?
 
[quote="Paul Baker"]
Tacking two opposite corners with low temp solder and flux, fluxing all pins, wave solder each line without touching actual pins (pad only to deposit solder), go back over with dry tip along pin->pad joint. Works very well, vitually no bridging (any bridging that occurs in first pass rectifies itself in second pass if proper amount of solder is used), most bridging occurs when you hop up onto the pins only. Whole process takes about a minute.
