So when installing an IC socket, do you:
1) tape in on until it's soldered in.
2) slightly bend a couple of the legs, so it holds itself in for soldering.
3) find a random object laying on the workbench to prop it up on, holding the socket in.
4) other [please describe]
I've variously used all of 1-3, most often 3. Just wondering what other clever methods there are.
