The iFixit and Wera range of tools have a reputation for quality and longevity, but they usually come with a hefty price tag. I get it, you pay for quality. You can get by with cheaper tools, in fact when you are starting out these are the tools that you should reach for. But when you have a few miles under your belt, you'll start to appreciate the tools that you need and use. That is when you should stump up the cash and get quality.
These two iFixit kits are ideal for PC building, 3D printer maintenance, and general DIY / furniture assemblies. The Wera Hex-Plus set also has a great discount right now, making Black Friday the right time to buy quality tools.
