A tip for soldering 'D' connectors:  I always plug the connector into a mating connector before soldering.  If the plastic gets soft, the mating connector holds the pin in alignment until it cools off again.

This is a great tip, but everyone should note that he said "a mating connector", not "the mating connector".  In other words, don't plug it into your EC-2 or EM-2 while your soldering. 
 
Note- this has been a public service announcement on behalf of Tracy Crook, and I'm sure he will approve this message :-)
 
Cheers,
Rusty
