Hi all.... Shot in the dark from your jack-of-all-trades TechNet Administrator, but I think 'weave soldering' could be misleading you to think of 'wave soldering'. I'm no expert, but perhaps the translation should be 'desoldering braid', or 'wick' as it's called? Just my $.02.

What is this, and how is it said in English. Thanks!
