I developed my own way of soldering SMT parts, especially 0603 size
components:
1. Use tinned fine point tip on low wattage iron to solder one lead/end
of the part onto its pad - even if not well.
(snip)
1. Have a good fingernail on your index or middle finger on your
non-iron-holding hand.
2. Dip the fingernail edge into rubber cement.
I put just a *tiny* bit of solder on one pad - even just dragging the
tinned tip of your iron is usually enough. Then I place the part with a
pair of tweezers, and lightly press straight down on it with the tips of the
tweezers to lightly hold it in place. Heat the pad that you tinned, remove
your iron, and bam - it's tacked down, and perfectly placed. Then you can
do the other pads as you wish.
