A good quality iron with temperature control, tip cleaner, a good copper sponge (no wet sponge), and a copious amount of no clean flux. Also I have switched to silicone wires inside the sleeves because they don’t melt, but they can tear if not protected by a Paracord sleeve. Also, I use a 3rd hand with 4 goose neck and a magic arm with nano clamp. Final tip: practice. It takes a while and a lot of mess ups to get it right.
