I found a right angle air powered die grinder to be very handy to have. You can use the 2" sanding disks for smoothing the weld, trimming the alum. panels and general grinding of small items. You can also get some carbide burrs if you need to remove evem more mat'l. If you get into a bind you can also use it as a small right angle drill to drill those rivit holes in tight places. Think of it as a dremel tool on steroids.
Tool list for typical build?
I am in the process of collecting everything I need to build my FFR Roadster, but I was wondering if there was a list of the tools needed? I am going the non-donor route with a crate engine and as many new parts as I can find so I am mainly wondering what tools are needed for assembly? I know I will need a good air compressor, rivit gun, drill w/ many 1/8th inch bits, torque wrench, sockets, wrenches... what am I missing? Thanks!
