My kit contains : Horofix Springbar Tool , Horotec 1.6mm T Tip screwdriver, Loctite 222 and a small handheld steamer for stubborn screws.

Only tip I can think of is always tape up your lugs regardless of tools and don't try to force screws out.

Awesome tip. Where can you pick up the tools you have typically?

Pliers will help you with the steel bracelet better.

most people seem to like the bergeon 7825 spring bar tool if you are ok with dropping the $150 required for one. Ofrei.com or ebay (seller from france)
