Hello Everyone,

I don't know if I'm posting in the right part of the forum but feel free to move the subject if needed (Sorry)

 

----------------------

 

So i'm currently building a new PC and i'm planning to do some cleaning, mounting and stuff for my friends and family (Why not hun !) 

For that i've a personal space for building stuff and all BUT !

I don't have ANY SPECIFIC TOOLS. Could you help me guys to pick tools that every pc builder NEED for his hobby :) 

 

 

I'm living in Belgium so some US items are not availaible here. I can pick I think from Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France and maybe UK

 

The list is : 

  • A little set of tools, like a screwdriver box you know 
  • Electronics wipes ?
  • I'm planning to buy a duster but not right now
  • A set of anti static brushes. 
     

Do you think of something i miss ? Or do you have personnal recommendation for that stuff ? 

Thanks you experts ! And thanks for taking your time answering

I might also add some compressed air to your list. 
 

For your screwdrivers, if you’re going for the cheaper end I’d look at something like this:https://www.amazon.com/ORIA-Screwdriver-Professional-Precision-Smartphone/dp/B01E16J6RQ/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?keywords=multibit+screwdriver+set&qid=1581597996&sprefix=multibit+&sr=8-5

 

for screwdrivers on the more expensive side I feel like iFixit has the best kits

One or more of those 32-in-1, 50-in-1 or such screwdriver bit sets from eBay/Aliexpress etc. Or such a set from a hardware store. Maybe iFixIt.

A Xiaomi Wowstick screwdriver. (electric)

Magnetic tray for the screws.

A large tube of thermal paste, if you want cheap - GD900 from AliExpress.

Tweezers.

Alcohol, 70% or stronger. For cleaning.

Zip ties. Twist ties.

A long screwdriver.

Anti-static brush(es)
