A really good how-to guide, makes the user very comfortable all along the way.
Do yourself a HUGE favor.
Buy a 15-30 watt pencil tip soldering iron NOW, not later. Radio Shack solder is good enough. Let's get you soldering correctly right away. As a matter of fact an entire thread devoted to soldering and soldering tips is more than called-for. I think it was SCV Jeff, that embarrassed me into remembering that fine strand wire works as good as any de-soldering braid. I cannot express enough gratitude for his polite cheek reddening tip. It, of course, worked superbly. Thank you señor.
