I’m a ham-fisted oaf, and I’m wondering what people do to immobilize these tiny litz wires against the various driver terminals and MMCX/2-pin plug connectors while soldering them together. The various third-hand tools I’ve tried have these big spring clips and ungainly arms that make fine-grained positioning of parts basically impossible.
EDIT: And while we’re at it, what kind of soldering station should I buy? I may just do the Hakko 888, which seems very highly regarded, but if people know what else is worth checking out, please let me know.
