i'm making a professionl jig to keep the heat away from the caps. so that isnt a issue. i have a hot air gun coming that has a low fan speed with variable heat output to reflow the boards. Does this sound okay?

I have a board that is working but is showing graphical glitches on it at the nxe menu. Xclamp fix worked to get it up and running but there is still a problem which is why i have come up with making a reflow station and jig.
