RE: Stupid tool question...

1999-12-16 by Dave Bradley

A large nutdriver is needed to tighten down the nuts securing pots to the
front panel. Although I thought I was using 3/4", not 5/8" for that...

As for lead-bending tools, a manly man has been known to just use needle
nose pliers and a good eye.
