yes, it will solidify quickly, and they will form shiny and smooth solder joints.

it's relatively easier to melt and desolder 63/37 solder joints imo. just touch the joint for 1 to 2 seconds with hot iron (like 320c), then press the button of the desoldering pump. i use hakko sppon 20g.

if you're comfortable with 60/40, it's ok to use it also. i suggest 63/37 because it's beginner-friendly, e.g., it melts and flows nicely, so that soldering and desoldering can be done within 3 seconds per joint, even for a beginner.

edit:

this is my recent build with kester 63/37 solder wires, after IPA cleanup.

I've no experience what so ever with soldering but that soldering work in my opinion is very clean work!

this is just part of my work since mco started. it's time to put them into their respective boxes. there are many builds that i like. they will show up in my rotation list when i think of them haha

wow... you really like the 64 layout. I also like my GK64 but sometimes, I really hope there's a small gap between the right ctrl and the left arrow. Maybe I should just remove the right ctrl key. haha...
