   That's my preferred method, but results in removal of the pad far more often   
   than I'd like. I'm almost certainly doing something wrong, and cheap   
   protoboards don't help the situation.

   I do have braid and a solder sucker, and have gotten better at using the   
   sucker. It helps to use a vise or something similar to hold the PCB upright   
   so that both sides can be accessed simultaneously. However, I still find it   
   somewhat frustrating; that might just be me.   
      
   I have a soldering/desoldering station on my wishlist; I'm hoping that will   
   make things easier. Am I deluding myself?
