      Digital vernier caliper is a useful piece of kit. Great for finding screw thread sizes and hole pitches.
      You can pick these up for under a tenner.

        First thing - nice long cross-head screwdriver, perfect for those grip screws, magnetic helps enormously when putting the screws back.

        I keep saying I'll get myself a small but powerful motorized screwdriver for those 9 gearbox screws, nothing more tedious than taking apart the gearbox for the 10th time in the space of a couple of hours.

          Pillow case !

          The best for when opening up a gearbox / gun when you know everything is going to come flying out at different angles and be lost till the Hoover starts making funny rattling noises .

            You can magnetise most of your favourite tools if required. Get a strong magnet and stick to tool for about 24 hours. You will find your tool now magnetised.

              My precision hand files.

              Not as harsh as a dremel and makes things so much simpler!

                Agree with hand files, had a Marui M3 in bits and while it was removed all the tooling marks before spraying. Great for attention to detail.
                Not a job for the dremmel.

                  Plumbers wrench. The only thing big enough to loosen my hand tightened delta rings.

                      What are the manufacturers doing with delta rings?
                      Are they using an armourers wrench with a 10' extension bar just to make sure it doesn't come loose!

                        Does feel like that sometimes. G&P, i'm particularly looking at you! Mind you, not a single bloody Airsoft manufacturer actually installs 'em properly anyway....

                          Don't forget the trusty butane soldering irons / heat torches .

                            I hope they are tools and not attached to weavers.
