Order in bits, stuff goes quick and I've found that it's nearly impossible to make an order for EVERYTHING you need.
I have an Aoyue 469 solder station and Hakko tips. It's a good low level esd safe station with adjustable temp. The tips made a world of difference from the stock tip.
I'm with Zach on the solder. I use 60/40 (63/37) 0.02mm solder made by chip quick. Leaded wire flows much better and will make your life so much easier. You can use flux too if you find you're having trouble with flow. You'll get more control with thinner wire.
26 awg wire works just fine and you can get that here
