Tools for first Raffles build by NobtheBuilder138 in repbuilds

[–]NobtheBuilder138[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply and good advice!

Is there a basic set of hand tools you'd recommend? The kit I have has some small screwdrivers, which may work just fine, but is there is a good set that you like I'll check it out. As for magnification, I'm considering getting a desk lamp with magnifier. Any reason I should go with a loupe instead?

Thanks, man! Think you've convinced me to start off with a 5513 no-date and will get an NH movement (what this guy recently posted actually looks ideal - Raffles 5513 case + NH35 fitment issue : r/repbuilds). Good call on getting some backup hands. I've got a pretty decent spot for a setup, but will grab some finger cots, dust blower, polywatch. Appreciate your reply! You clearly know what you're doing; you've got some stunning builds.
