Wow, two hardware guys, Ben Heck and Patrick Norton, legendary episode. You guys should do another one, and get really into some weird hardware projects together.
There are concave tips that work REALLY well for this if you don't have a reflow station. I prefer to reflow but in a pinch I will use a normal conical tip on my iron but I prefer the concave tips.
Awesome! I love to see my subscribed channels appearing in each other's videos. Like when Vsauce, minute physics, veritasium and smarter everyday show up on each other's channels. Too bad Ben won't be on rev 3 anymore.
This episode made me nostalgic for Systm. Desoldering braid is like the third member of a holy trinity with duct tape and WD40. Not to be confused with the 5lb hammer, come-along, and pry bar trio.
That was a fair introduction, but lets not encourage the masses to resolder their stuff. what you need is a different tip and you can do it in one pass with not mess and without any solder wick after

Agree. Try to team up again with Ben. Have been subbed to him for a long time. Good video
Sooo helpful!! Cant express my frustration doing this, but that makes it a lot easier.
Very cool. I love DIYTryin and Ben heck. The best of both worlds in a short concise video. You guys should work together more often.

I think it will be a good thing for him, as he will have more freedom over his show.
Ben, what kind of solder did you use to desolder the chip? Was it some kind of low melting point solder?
Standard 66/44 solder...

Nice! isn't the ben heck show going away from Rev3 though? ***** patrick norton
I'm guessing they filmed this a while back, before all of that changed.
i have seen a some sort of baste used when soldering chips like that, what is that all about?
Probably liquid soldering flux...
come to think about it i think thay said it prevented solder from getting in between the feet.
very handy video
Hey look its Ben Heck i watch his show!
Cool nice collaboration :) also arduino yay
Heh, right when The Ben Heck Show is leaving Revision3. Still a great episode though!
I like it.

What kind of tip would that be?
When i learned surface mount soldering we used chisel tips, it seemed to make it easier.
Or hot air station and flux ;)
