Take care that the diodes stay outside the switch footprints. This should be easy since there is lots of room in between switches.

If you are working on the Master Half, install the resistors near the top, on the top side.

If you are working on the slave side, continue to the next step. The slave side does not have resistors.

If resistors are on installed the slave instead of the master, it should still work fine.

Install Reset switch on the bottom side of the boards. This is a surface mount switch. Apply some solder to one of the 4 pads. Place the switch in position. Melt the pre-applied solder to "tack" the switch in place. Solder the other 3 connections.

Some recommend to put some solder on the 4 pads. I find it easier to align the switch if only 1 pad has solder pre-applied. Using tweezers, you can hold the switch and gently touch the leg with the soldering iron and melt the solder. Let the solder solidify and solder the other legs.

Install TRRS Connector on the bottom side of the boards. This is a surface mount connector. Apply some solder to one of the 4 pads; preferably to the side that had a single connection. Place the connector in position. Melt the pre-applied solder to "tack" the connector in place. Solder the other 3 connections.
