[Desolder ANY-thing this way]

Sounds like a great idea, with just one small caveat.

In some places you cannot just walk into a shop and buy some syringe needles - they look at you sort of sideways as if you are going to use them for something other than desoldering !  Know what I mean ?  ::) 

Over here we need a doctor's prescription to get them - like people with diabetes, etc.

Any ideas for another source of supply ?  ???   

Otherwise - a very usesull tip. I've been building electronics projects for about 40 years and never though of it before.  :-[
