🔧 The Ultimate iFixit Manta Driver Kit: 112 Precision Bits for Household & Electronics Repair Review

I needed a range of quality tools for a variety of household tasks including a computer, EDC knife, clocks and minor electronics repairs. Ifixit offers a variety of toolkits to choose from. I chose Manta as my core set for my precision instruments. This set had the most attachments and was the most suitable for my needs. Build quality and aesthetics are top notch. The top of the case serves as a shelf for attaching screws, divided into compartments for separating things. The upper part is…
