The easiest time I ever had soldering a bunch of SMDs was when I used a
stereo microscope in the lab of the company I worked at at the time. At
home I use something like a 4x magnifying desk lamp but when my eyes
start going downhill in a few years I may just have to get one of those
microscope thingies. Man that was sweet. I think Chinese/Russian made
units aren't too crazy expensive.
