Hand Tools Section

  Show Cart

It is possible to spend as much as you want for tools from the ridiculously cheap to the astronomically expensive. Cheap tools can interfere with work and can even become safety hazards. I don't think there is anything wrong with expensive, high quality tools (just ask my wife!) but they don't quite fit into our product line.
We offer good quality, basic tools that get the job done while providing a reasonable level of durability and comfort. Our tools can provide many years of service if used properly. We test these tools every day at our own workbenches and in our classes.

This bundle consists of one Basic Hand Tool Set, one Advanced Soldering Tool Set and one Electronic Meter and Test Lead Tool Set.

Its possible to build many robot and electronic projects using a small collection of tools that are often found around the house. Making do that way is often an economic necessity and can be part of the building challenge. When finances aren't an absolute limitation, accumulating one tool at a time lets you get exactly the quality and feel of tools that you prefer. We offer this tool set as a reasonable compromise. It includes a comprehensive set of tools and accessories that simplify building and eliminate the frustration, wasted car trips and extra shipping charges that often accompany accumulating tools one item at a time.

These are economical, good quality tools that will provide years of service if properly cared for. We use these tools at our own development and repair workbenches and in the classes we teach. The package includes two sturdy plastic storage tubs.

 Safety Spectacles



Safety spectacles protect your eyes from splaching solder and flying wire snips. Spectacles are more comfortable than goggles because they don't have that elastic band stretching around your head or leave you with racoon marks around your eyes. They do not provide quite as much protection as goggles but are often a good compromise because they get used more often due to comfort issues-- goggles sitting in a drawer don't provide any protection at all. Can be worn over most glasses. Manufacturer: ELENCO. Manufacturer's Part Number: ST-22.
