I always had a school eraser with one end split. I would put the lead of the component in the split and as I pulled it out I would twist it also. This cleaned up stuff on the lead prior to soldering back into the circuit. --

Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" I only use "non-GMO enhanced" solder that is free-ranged. Also, only natural lead & pure tin mined by hand without polluting equipment is used with rosin (flux) from contented pine trees that have at least one wild endangered species bird nest in it. 73, Charlie k3ICH ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
