Re:Have you ever seen soldering THIS close? [video] by foldr on Thursday September 19, 2024 @04:39AM (#41589824)
It's quite feasible to do reflow soldering by applying solder paste with a stencil and then using a cheap toaster oven. However, the lack of a precisely controlled temperature profile makes it less repeatable and reliable than the industrial process. I've done it successfully a few times but generally had to touch up one or two components with a hot air station or soldering iron.
