About the only concern is the current density.  This may
and may not adverse effects, depending on the application.

                        I have to assemble and solder (by hand) 0805
resistors on 1206 pads and 0603
                        resistors on 0805 pads.

                        Any thoughts on reliability?

                        Am I better off bonding the resistor and running
jumper wires ("Dead-Bug")?


                        Thanks,
