Pot retaining and switchcraft 1/4 jack require 1/2" nutdriver.  All keeper
nuts require 5/16".  These two nutdrivers stay with my MOTM assembly tool
tray.  The rest of the $19.95 Craftsman set stays in the tool box.

I have never used a jig either.  I find it plenty quick to bend them with
my fingers and a good eye as Dave said.
