I’m planning on soldering my next KB, do you guys have any tips on soldering irons, solder materials, etc, to make it go smoothly? I’ve only soldered bulky stuff so I have a soldering iron appropriate for a gorilla.

If you’re just soldering switches, any iron will work just fine.
If you’re buying a bare PCB and plan on soldering all the components onto it, you will definitely want a beveled tip.
