Best of luck to you! Take your time, don't work when you're tired or frustrated, and you should do fine.

Does it matter what type of resistor is used (wire wound or metal oxide)or, as long as it matches your needs it does not matter?
It can, but mainly due to the metal type resistors having the possibility of shorting against the inside of the hilt should their coating become damaged or scratched. Try to stick with carbon type or ceramic if possible.
