I'm getting some components on digikey and I also want to get some supplies to prototype some home-made circuit boards. I haven't done tech work in years and have a new aide who hasn't done much soldering at all. I want to get solder but want to get what's easiest to work with for surface mount as well as through hole.
I've gone through some old posts and it looks like leaded solder is easiest. I know this seems like a really dumb question but I want to make it as easy for my aide as possible. Can someone recommend the easiest solder to work with (% lead, guage, type and maybe even melting point)? I'm getting a flux pen and have a soldering iron with a small tip. Thanks
