This electric desoldering iron comes in handy for sure and makes for a clean and fast desoldering job.  Only $12 at your local radio shack.

Oh hell yeah,not only does it desolder,I use it to reflow joints as well(just don't use the bulb),it's quick and easy. You can replace the tips on it for about 1.99 too. I can't say enough good things about this tool.
Pedal building is like the opposite of sex.  All the fun stuff happens before you get in the box.

Yea glad to hear it.  It really does a great job of desoldering and "reflowing".  Can't beat the price as well.
