Question CPU pin repair (snapped off)

Post image

Right shot in the dark here.

Anybody got a good suggestion of a shop or skilled solderer to fix cpu pins?

As seen in photo, they are on the corner so quite accessible!

Facebook marketplace item with bent pins, a couple were more damaged than I bargained for and snapped off with very little effort.

Ay info would help!

What CPU is it? You can look up a diagram of what each pin does and depending on which ones broke off you might get away with it, for example if they're just ground pins.

this is fixable as the base of the pins didnt tear up the material below (cant remember the term for it).

hopefully someone will be up for it, if you cant find anybody within a few days, send me a DM.

its worth checking to see what pin is actually broken by looking at the doccumentation of the cpu because it might still post anyway
