(I'm the same person from below) The most important thing you have to remember about fighting Skeletron is to build a perfectly flat arena, around 50 blocks long. This makes it MUCH easier to dodge his attacks, as only his hands and head hurt, not the arms. Infact, with this setup, it's pretty easy to beat him with weaker equipment. As long as you focus on avoiding the head (it hits much harder than the arms.) Than you're good, although I recommend taking out the hands because they are really annoying. Just jump through the arms and get shotsin on the head or the arms, and don't try melee too much, as it brings you closer to the head, which will grind through your armor.
