Ah well, so much for that idea.

Clever use of building up the solder stack -- small thin wire can also be used in situations like that.

One time, I had to use an Xacto knife to dig away a little plastic from the shell of a chip, to expose some metal of a broken-off pin so that I could attach a small wire to it.

Cheers!
