Hardware Tools & replacement screws - any recommendation?

[tecfreak]

Hi,

I'm seeking a recommendation on tools to disassemble my console and on replacement screws to get rid of all the crappy tri wing screws.
Costs is a concern because I can't afford a high quality tool-kit atm. 30€ is the max. I would spent if the quality is worth it.

Any recommendations?

Ifixit set is probably the one to go for.

Read a lot about ifixit and many people claim that the quality of the bits has deteriorated.

Get a $10 jackly 30 in 1 set on Amazon. Has the tri wing bit, the Phillips bit, and a bunch of others that are great for around the house. And they aren't garbage tips that break after 2 uses.

Those ifixit kits are designed for 1 time repairs only (cheap Chinese shit), and those eBay/Amazon red handle ones are garbage (even cheaper Chinese shit).

I ordered a ifixit kit, seems pretty decent however i think the bits are aluminium, so they could be easily wrecked, I believe they are this way to prevent damaging hardware when removing, rather damage the bit and replace then some special hard to find screw. Other wise its just being cheap.

I just picked up a Y0 and a PH000 bit at my local tool shop.

Ok, I think I'll give the Jackly 45in1 set a try. It is only 12€ here on amazon.
