Re: BGA Soldering: Hot air rework station

Mark,

 Nice boards, I haven't seen anything like that before.
 There are also some that look like a small PCB board with pads just 
just for one IC (usually a complex one) the with pins spaced 
comfortably.
 I don't know though if they would work as easily for the BGAs since 
you still have to solder them on.
