Graham:  Regarding lead forming on a SOIC.  Avoid, if at all possible, doing
it by hand (bad results, inconsistencies and probable component lead/seal
damage will result).  In an earlier life (quite a number of years ago) I was
the Program Manager for a U.S. Navy repair program.  It seems to me that, at
that time, a company named Soldering Technology International in Madison AL
(205.461.9191) made/marketed some rather nice and fairly inexpensive lead
bending dies which we used in our schools and repair depots.  You might give
them a call and see if they still market such items, or perhaps they could
direct you to someone who does. Regards, Jim Moffitt, Moffitt Enterprises
