using a hakko 808 desoldering gun, you can just wiggle each leg slightly
once the solder is liquified. its so easy. do an entire 16 pin double sided IC in about
15-20 seconds, and you visibly see that the points are clean. i know buying another 3-400 dollar part might seem silly/superfluous, but i would honestly rather dump a synth before dumping that thing. SO useful.-rj

Hi guys,
Wonder if amyone here could give me a bit of avsice. I am trying to
desolder a 14pin IC from a double sided board.
It's not easy - what is the scret?
I have a spring loaded solder-sucker and can get the solder from the
'usual' side, but the thing is still solid.
How does one 'suck solder' from 'under' the chip...??
Cheers,
Tom
