One other thing about tools notably screwdrivers, get good ones. Your got-the-cheapo-set from xyx's are probably not up to tight screws. My cheapo set from xyx left the tip of the screwdriver in a screw head and ummm made a mess of the head. I had to drill the head off and a hand brace rather than a power tool did an excellent job of that, I was able to stop the drill dead without drilling into the metal, aluminium, behind the screw head. However I am now waiting for some "sample" 1.6mm screws from the local nut and bolt stockist, thank goodness the damaged screw was a standard metric thread. Also work inside a tray, it saves being on your hands and knees for a couple of hours looking for that miniscule ball bearing, washer or screw that you last saw making a break for orbit or the deepest recesses of the carpet. |
