let's talk about Tools

[mcevoyi]

Hi all

Thought I would open a thread about the tools we use for our hobby ... I have a pile of them and collected over the years
some are precious to me ! ...like my calliper gauge from lid £10 and I use it for measuring everything
especially when I cut plastic card ...

The next is my much loved punch and die set which I have had for more than 30 years and I so need to get a new one ....so any one got any idea where I can find on that's not going to cost a fortune ?

What the tools u use the most ...and let's have a thread about wounder cheap tools that we can all enjoy ...it's about time as we all have them in our tool boxes

Draper Tap & Die set + Rolson Tap & die set both in concert with a Draper Ratchet and Socket set.
Saved me a fortune in glue and lets me disassemble parts without damage.

Lighter ? ..lol you love to set your tanks on fire ..lol

I knew that was coming. Heat shrink on the cables

And I thought the lighter was to light yet another celebratory cigar having sold yet another truck load of IBU2s
