Tools needed for newbie modding

[dmpl]

I have now got a couple of "sacrificial" Seiko 5's to practice modding on. From this forum and others I have arrived at the following list of tools I will need:

- watch case holder
- screw back case opening tool
- screwdrivers
- glass press and dies
- tweezers
- hand remover/fitter

Now please tell me all the obvious things I have overlooked

Thanks
Des

A good torch and a magnet to help find the tiny bits that WILL ping off onto the floor :twisted:

Lots of patience!

Blower brush - the sort of thing used on camera lenses.
Clear plastic bag - for taking bits apart that are likely to spring off, never to be found again.
Wet and dry paper.
Brasso, or other polishing medium.
Fibre pen.







and a bloody big hammer and chisel :twisted:
