I need to purchase a rework tool mainly for QFP's including 30mm x 30mm. I was looking at a Metcal QX2 and a Pace TF200. I would welcome any comments on these two products or any other suggestions. Also, is a preheater necessary?

MiniMicro stencil has stencils and a holder/aligner. I use their stencils but have not used their tooling. I use the eyeball align - tape and secure method. www.minimicrostencil.com Not affiliated with in any way. Russ
