What soldering iron do you use? I'm not confident soldering anything this small because I have a $10 radio shack iron. lol I have been thinking about getting a decent iron... I'm sure it makes a world of difference...

I don't know what Dylan uses but a good soldering iron and the right tip makes all the difference. My main soldering iron is a Weller WESD51 soldering station and my back up is an Aoyue 968A hot air rework station.
