I have another question for this thread:
What kind of solder are you using?
For production we use the SAC305 and Koki S03X7Ca. Both are lead-free. I also use this solder for SMD rework. And as leaded solder, I use Sn60Pb40.
In some video of Jessa, she said, that she is using a Sn63Pb37 solder. So I bought this solder to try it out. I used it to solder some resistors to a stripboard. But I'm not quite convinced about this solder. The solder wasn't flowing. Only with excessive amount of flux, I had good results.

larossmann where do you get a syringe needle for the amtech flux you sell. I purchased one a while back and I've been having to stick my finger inside the syringe to push the flux out and it makes it easy to put too much flux.

it's decent, but i hate microscope.com for repeatedly screwing me. I like this one http://www.amazon.com/AmScope-SM-3T...d=1463409368&sr=8-13&keywords=amscope+3.5+90x

larossmann what kind of microscope are you currently using. In one of your videos I believe you said ifixit sent you a $900 microscope.
It is great at replacing BGA chips.
If only it made economical sense.
BGA rework is a 40 minute job. In and of itself, it already breaks my rule of not spending more than 20 minutes on a board. The bigger issue here is that all the chipsets you can buy are the rejects/fakes/bullcrap that chinese people pried off dead motherboards with a flathead screwdriver(being a little dramatic here but you get my point), cleaned off, and sold to you.
Did it not work because the chip was bad?
Did it not work because it was improperly soldered?
Did it not work because that chip was only ONE of several other issues?
Who knows? And who cares - you just wasted 40 minutes of your life, $30-$50 of your money... for something that doesn't work.
Fuck that.
