I had to make a second pass at it this this afternoon. This time I used my DSLR with a macro lens and remote live view mode on my lap top screen to examine the results. Here is a snap of the setup. The FRAM-71 board was clamped in the vise where the solder braid is sitting.


Here is a close up of the pin 6 repair. Used a small milling bit in a Dremel drill press to gain access to the buried pin.

Nice work! I couldn't have done that myself, my tools don't amount to much more than a soldering iron (25W), pliers, several screwdrivers (one with a LED light), a 10 Metre measuring tape, and the all-important hammer.

Oh, and a container with about 150 screws from hard drives...
