Drag soldering technique for SMD chips

I saw this video on Curious Inventor the other day and thought this would be handy for anyone building a MBFM, GM5 or other project involving surface mounted chips. It may not be new to you, but it was new to me and I will definitely be giving it a try.

That’s awesome. Thanks!

A knife tip is actually designed for this process, and lets you do it in one soldering pass.
