So, after numerous samples of different types of paste, I've decided=20
that Indium SMQ90 just plain works the best as far as reliable=20
time/pressure dispensing.  Unfortunately, the minimum order is way more=20
than I can use during it's 6 month official shelf life, so I'm hoping=20
that some of the list might be interested in picking up a few tubes.

These are 10cc tubes/syringes, filled with 25 grams of 63/37 SnPb solder=20
paste,  Type 4, in a no-clean, made for dispensing paste - see the=20
indium site for specs on the SMQ90.

6 month refrigerated shelf life, 3 months if stored between 5 and 25*C.

Because I'm machine dispensing with these, they don't come with a hand=20
plunger.  You can pick them up fairly cheaply from various sources, and=20
re-use from tube to tube.   You'll also want to get an assortment of=20
needles/tips.

I'm looking for around $5 per tube, probably with a bit of per-shipment=20
packaging cost added on for things like ice packs.  These will be=20
available about the first week of October.
