Suggested Electronic Tool List
What's in your Tool Kit, let
me suggest this list.
|
OK, say you are going to
start a small business which will build and repair electronic equipment. What
kind of tools will you need? After some 40 years of fixing electronic stuff,
I have a list below of some of the tools I would recommend. This same tool list
might also apply for field service work, a R&D lab bench or a well equipped hobby
room. Sure, you may want to add lots of test equipment, but below are the basic
tools I think you will need. Have I left anything out that you would recommend?
