Problem with removing solder...clearing pin.
<< < (3/3)

I use a large sewing needle. It's easy to pull out because it is tapered.
GreyWoolfe:
I have a dental pick for this purpose.
Brumby:
Well .... that's what a toothpick is, after all...    ;D
RobertHolcombe:
To clear PTH I often apply additional solder and while the solder is molten give the board a light tap on a rubber pad. The force is usually enough to remove all the solder and any remaining component leads. Obviously only applicable to smaller boards which can be hand held, and not suitable for delicate parts ;D
