I check EVERY resistor that goes in with the DMM.  Some of the colors are
just too much alike for my old eyes.

Which would be totally unnecessary if you had done it right the first time.

Just wiggle the lead.  If it's stiff it's soldered.  If it moves
it's not.

Yes, but I'm inspecting them anyhow.  Like I said, I am kind of anal about
my soldering.
