What would be the best way to connect to a 3x2 group of solder pads? I created my own 3x2 connector (pardon the poor soldering), but there must be a more off the shelf way? I haven't been able to find anything. Anybody have any ideas? Images belowPins to solder to

My sad attempt

SMT Header

Search all the likely distributors. They all have them. The vertical versions are easier to solder by hand.
