First effort using the @Darrencp method for cheat soldering an FV1 onto a Deflector pcb ie splodge a line of solder paste down each side don't bother clearing between each pad (hoping the heat sucks the solder in) whack it on the cheapo hotplate and Bob's yer auntie

Only 2 bridges where I thought there may be a tad too much paste, solder sucked out in jig time

Yeah, when I started, my fears seemed much greater than the realities I faced. To me, the hardest part became cleaning out the fine nozzle on my flux bottle; I recently rectified that by getting another bottle that has easily replaced, cheap nozzles.

The smaller sized caps still are tricky, mainly keeping them where you want them.
