RE: gEDA-user: Connecting a pin to a polygon



If you wish to build this board by yourself with limited resources, I think you have two options. One is when you have access to the pins, using a solder iron with a very fine tip. It you have a small BGA sort of chip with no access underneath, you can use solder paste and activate the compound with a heat gun.

Thanks again. I was looking at the wrong place.  Now that the board has passed the DRC checks I
printed a top image and placed the components. Anyone have any idea how to solder the 20 mil
leadless chips????

Does your board look like this?

I count 8 mils between the light blue and the green.
