I bought a soldering iron, a vacuum tool, and a bunch of LEDs to put in my poker II.
3 hours, two burned hands, and a single installed LED later, here I am.
As soon as I heat the solder on the board (the presoldered crap I am trying to remove), it falls through the holes. No matter how quickly I try to vacuum it out with the vacuum tool, nothing works. So now I have 3 or 4 switches with unreachable solder in the terminals. I have no idea what to do. I've watched countless videos on how to do this and I feel like I'm doing the exact things they are but nothing is working.
Is there any hope?
