Make sure the leads aren't sticking above the panel and you can just stencil it like normal.
As I type this the machines are being set up to run the G250s. We get the stencil tomorrow, and if everything looks good we will run limited production some time very soon. As promised, there will be lots of pictures. ;-)

Hi Marcus,
My question was to do with the paste stencils used. How do you determine the apertures size for the THC? The apertures need to be large enough to apply enough pate to fill the hole space wit solder. I don't know how to determine this other than trial and error.
Cheers,
Peter.
