I have a slight tremor and haven't been able to attach leads to diodes the usual soldered way. I got a wirewrap tool from radio shack and started attaching leads to laser diodes using this. It works fine and I have a couple of burning working lasers that I used this technique to get the leads attached. Yes the wire is only 30 guage and no it's not as good as solder, but it can be done safely and easily with no danger of damaging the diode with too much heat.
