Have you ever tried to take a soldered part out of a circuit board or anything else soldered?

I know you can run to your local Rad shack and the have a vacuum type tool or the braided copper .

Well at the time I didn't have the funds to by either so I improvised.

I grabbed my can of and with the help of that god 'ol straw was able to unsolder parts of the board by blowing the solder away and had a clean  hole for which to but the part make in.
