Toaster oven? My 19 year old son and I live alone. As a result there are a
lot of strange melted substances draped over the heating coils in our
toaster oven, but solder isn't one of them. Yet...are you serious or is
"toaster oven" a slang word for some expensive SMD assembly equipment?

I have no problem with SOIC parts, but the more popular SSOP and TSSOP parts
are almost impossible to deal with unless you use some trick like a toaster
oven to install the parts prior to other assembly.
