That is very kind offer, and i may take you up on it. I haven't done anything that intricate for quite a few years, and back then my eyesight was much better. I also don't have all the correct equipment, not even hot air gun at moment. One way i used to do these was by tacking a couple of legs to get it held in position, then use a wide spade bit in a metcal iron and completely "Flood" one side at a time with solder, then comb all the access solder away. Some times if they wasn't lined up exactly, i would use the hot air gun to reflow them, tapping the board gently, and they sort of float into the correct position! Looking back i don't know how they survived all the heat ! Maybe i was just lucky.....Where do i send it ?
