Selection of good quality tools What tools do you use the most? I have screwdrivers, cutters, tweezers, etc...
Tools i use the most are probably
- screwdrivers, cutters, SMT tweezers, solder sucker, pliers, antistatic pcb cleaning brush, jewelers screwdrivers.
Tools that i don't use very often but that are really useful and make things easier
- dot punch, step drills, nibbler
LCR I guess I don't really have a need for this yet (I am, by the standards that be, still a intermediate beginner) Where do you use this?
I bought my peak LCR because i had a box of inductors and i had no idea what value they were. I like building switchmode supplies and i would always have to buy an inductor to get the right value. With the LCR i can find and reuse old inductors.
I actually got my peak LCR in a kit with the peak component tester at the same time (DCA55).
I must say i use the component tester far more often than the LCR.
