I'm looking for recommendations for a decent set of precision screwdrivers suitable for disassembly of walkmans etc (and the occasional digi-cam). Some screws are ridiculously small and shallow making life fun to say the least. I've looked on line and hope to spend no more than £25, maybe a little more. What are board members using? Retrodos, Plop & Dottor Walkman? Spill the beans!

here is every small // tiny driver on earth

Thanks redbenjoe but that's for USA! Also, right now, I'm looking for board members reviews, thanks again though

Although these are probably very poor quality, I use this type of thing.  Long with pivoted end caps.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SNAP-ON-SOFT-GRIP-SCREW-DRIVER-TORX-PICK-SET-OF-12-/261179210158?pt=UK_Hand_Tools_Equipment&hash=item3ccf7e79ae    have a go on these jules £90 new i know they are pricey but they are quality i have a set and some blue point ones .

I am with Chris on this. Quality is well worth paying for.

I found that the cheaper ones with the ribbed shafts (ooer!) are uncomfortable to use and a thicker rubberised shaft (I will stop soon) is much more comfortable and allows more torque to be applied. If the top spins round that is a bonus too because you can use a finger to steady them without getting finger burn! I got some decent ones as described from Maplin Electronics. The tips might not be as hard wearing as Snap On or Mac tools but they will cost a lot less. You will be paying over £20 for a half decent set. Anything less and they will probably fall apart and hurt your fingers.

Yes just the thing. I was looking for actually! Now to find the same, but nicer...Cris good spotting there. And Chris, agree 100%. Not sure I could drop £100 odd on screw drivers without passing out but yes, it's kind of thing I'll need in the future.

I am sorry to shatter any illusions others may have regarding what magical screwdrivers I may be using for removing tiny screws from walkman . Besides it not all about the tools, but rather what you can do with them

I bought these from Jusco Living Plaza in Hong Kong for $10 HKD (at the time ~75p), and subsequently a second set for $12 HKD (20% price hike, since my last visit Grr, and the worsening exchange rate meant it was closer to £1 GBP) I tend to use them where the screws are easy to remove and little to no torque is required. You could say these are simply pound shop drivers

For a bit more oomph with stubborn screws, I use this set I bought many many years ago. Cost was £19.99 from the Stirling branch according to the receipt inside.

You'll be telling me Father Christmas doesn't exist next. I agree with the sentiment of it ain't the tools so much as the guy using them. I think from the replies here it's clear decent enough tools can be had for reasonable money. My concern is when you're trying to remove a right arse of a screw that's very tiny and delicate. Any number of those on, say, cameras etc. I'm off to have a beak on the net, see what turns up. Thanks for reply and pics Plop!

These are the ones I use,I love them. They have the finger spinner knob on top,German made and lifetime warranted

I've bought these, can't go wrong for a quid!

What is the tool 5th from the left with the clock symbol?

No idea but for £1 you can't go wrong, let you know when it arrives. 

Ive got these too. For years now and they are still perfect. They are also very good for the small Sony Walkman screws. Mines are magnetic and that works great... Just don't use them for adjusting azimuth 

I am an Optician and work with small screws and drivers all the time.  You might need an account but HILCO or Western Optical sell some great screw drivers.  I have a set with ball bearings in the base and is weighted so it spins perfectly and is balanced.  Check them out.   http://www.hilco.com/optometry...;ParentCatName=Tools

It maybe magnetized. Perhaps some clocks don't like magnets
