packaging 3rd party dll into wsp

I have several 3rd party dll's for .net. I have the following requirements: - They must each be in their own sharepoint 2010 wsp - They must be deployed the bin, not the GAC

I'm having troubles accomplishing this. What steps need to be taken to do this?

I've tried creating a new sharepoint application, mapping bin, placing dll there then deploying.

I've tried creating new sharepoint application, adding the dll as a reference, selecting web application instead of global assembly cache and deploying.

Neither method has worked when I tried to use another webpart that required those dll's.

Edit - This page is an excellent example of what I need to do with 3rd party dll's but it doesn't have the details on how to do it. http://ranaictiu-technicalblog.blogspot.sg/2012/06/sharepoint-package-your-external.html

Appreciate any help.

Oké, getting your solution to deploy a DLL to the bin folder you need to change the deployment target from GAC to WebApplication. When the project is deployed the project assembly will be deployed to the bin folder of the project the DLLL will be located at C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories[SiteName]\bin

enter image description here

For the second question I don't know what you are trying to accomplish. Maybe you can give some more context.
