)
in the scope I got the function Gen as well hence I'll say I've got 20Mhz gen too
and some good old-but seem to be with in cal 0_0 kenwood 40Mhz analogue scope
Goot Gun soldering iron ( 20W-200W) _Chissel head though
lots of screw drivers and side cutters etc ..
and I guess that's it
![Confused :-//](https://www.eevblog.com/forum/Smileys/default/confused0024.gif.pagespeed.ce.5xOqKkq0Co.gif)
my thought's :
blue rubber mat ( like dave's )- 120$ ( the shipping is 80$ !!! )
HP6002A ( the 200W and 10A capabillitis are necesar ) -150$
horaizon 36V~2.5A -160$
2X64 component cabin ( around 40$ each - 80$ total)
and I think of getting one more meter ... I have got 3 options in my head :
(1) getting 33,000 count voltage meter ( 8.99$) and configure it to be switchable - 33V range and 330V range should be good enough )
(2) getting good fluke 27 -FM (the yellow one ) for about 50~80$
(3) maybe buying one more hp3478A ?

I shall mention I already have :
2100PCS resistor kit ( 1/4W )
like 20 op07's
signal transistor assortment kit ( the cheap 180 pcs one )
and some junk box of course
I think of getting :

ceramic cap 25 Value 20 each 500 Pcs -5.98$
100X LM358-5.89$
100X2n3906 ( already got 100pcs of the 2n222 ) -2.99$
100X2n3904-2.99$
