Hey guys our tech program here is just beginning and i have been in charge of getting all the neccesary tools. We have all the test equipment but no maintance tools yet. Can anyone help me out with a list of useful tools that will come in handy. Any help would be great.

What type of machines?

Mainly your basic hand tools, but remember a man can't have too many tools.

Philips and slotted screwdrivers. Metric and English wrenches and socket wrenches. Nut drivers, star drivers. Needle-nose pliers, adjustable pliers, channel lock pliers, a monkey wrench, small to large hammers. Tape measure, level, electrical tape, pipe thread tape. Look at the machines and the facility and see what you would need to get any job done.

there are 2008k machines

ok i found a all inclusive machine tool kit wondering if it will get the job done or if it still needs more things

Don't forget that everything is made in germany, so it's all metric. Also don't forget o-ring picks. My dentist gives me his old dental picks.

Don’t forget the 20 pound sledgehammer….for when you can’t fix it.

Here is the list of tool we get for any new hire in the technical dept. It is purchased throught Stanley 1-800-426-1194.

1 Complete tool box JTK-17-TTD
1 Cable tie 124-841
1 Hema stat set 891-584
1 mag light 686-002
Star ket and hex ket set?

Should set you back around $800.00

is there a web site for those rob i need a inventory list

Stanleytools.com

Rob,

Do you know H. Ande?

Another tool supply Co. Grainger can supply kits with cases that are affordably.

Don't forget the soldering iron, solder and desoldering braid for doing the motor brushes. Also a good multimeter.

Breakpar now has good advice on the dental picks. They call them "scribes" in the tool world. I use mine frequently.
