For simple 2 land devices like Rs and Cs , apply the tweezers across the
long axis or short axis? Flat/flat and so good metal/metal contacts
generally if shortwise application but full-on solder contact lengthwise
although spherical/flat contacts until initial solder melt. Assuming the
tweezer ends are centrally relieved for the shortwise situation to avoid
contacting the "active" section of the SMD

I prefer two soldering irons to the tweezers.
