Do you tin eyelets?

[Nolatone Ampworks]

Those of you who have built amps based on eyelet boards, just curious, do you guys tin the eyelets before installing the components?

The ones I buy are already tinned.

I bought a bunch from mojo that aren't tinned,so I tin them after installing them.It's better to get the tinned ones from mouser.

I usually wire brush dremel the un-tinned ones first to get any oxide off. Then when you solder it'll take the solder anyway.

That's a swell idea. I'll have to pull my dremel down to the bench
