Hi Peter , Do you still have this ?
Your board takes too many tools to take apart maaaan. I pray to the hex gods daily to thank them for my small tool load. This is all I need to take my builds apart

Been looking at these, mainly because Bondhus allen keys have served me well but aren’t great for daily use
and
- Allen key tool, generic Aldi one from years ago.
- Bosch electric screwdriver
- My hands
- My brain.
- Soldering rework station.
- 16mm ring spanner
- 5mm spanner
- Lidl pillar drill, £70 from years ago.
- Clarke 110litre air compressor I recently brought back to life.
- Me, I’m the biggest tool of all:joy:

Can anyone suggest a good brand / set of files?
I’ve been using the randos I’ve acquired over the years and they’re not cutting it

The problem with files as with many tools nowadays is brands change manufacturers often in search of lower cost so what once was great can be a pos currently.
Also as files wear down buying second hand is not an option.
I have had good luck with Nicholson, Bahco, Sandvik etc but they were all bought a few years back.

plug holder for soldering has been the best tool ever. no more burnt fingers!
Nicholson for sure. One thing to consider when using files…They are meant to cut in the forward motion only. After making a forward cut, lift the file off the material, and make the next cut. Almost every machinist I’ve seen uses them like a saw. Dragging the file backwards while in contact with the material (especially steel) rolls the cutting teeth over, decreasing its life.
