Professional techniques for hand soldering
BFX tipped us to this video of professional soldering techniques in the comments of our Soldering the 8bit PIC SchmartBOARD post.
The video shows how to prepare, solder, and clean a board with SMT components. Amongst other things, this tutorial shows how to solder one side of a fine pitch QFP device in one swoop of the soldering iron.

You can use a regular chisel tip to do drag soldering, too. Just use lots of flux and hold it at an angle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUyetZ5RtPs
This is indeed highly pornographic, couldn’t see any slight error. It’s all perfect.
