I could use some new cabinets.

I worked on 905 just a few days ago. I need to take a few pics of my box at work and post them.

I just got a sample from them last week

Ive done business with quite a few of these company's most of them have a good rep, and most have tool kit choices with basic riveting kits up to big kits for home builders. http://www.aircraft-tool.com/ http://www.planetools.com/ http://www.averytools.com/ http://www.browntool.com/...

Depends on what "Standard" you are using. On aircraft that i work on everything is 37, so your "standard" and mine are a little different.;)

I personally use fenix lights when working. L2T is my primary work light, P2D is my backup. Both rock solid.

I have these in the 6" version. Use them every day, They work great. http://www.browntool.com/productselect.asp?ProductID=469

Most aircraft wheels are of the split wheel type. Cages are a necessity in an aviation tire shop. Most jet aircraft tires run well over 100 psi sometimes close to 200psi. Easily enough to kill multiple people if one lets go.

You should see some of the tight areas i have to wire from time to time cant even get a hand in them much less pliers. Thats where i tell the new guys to do it, i love having seniority.

I safety wire everyday at work. Every fastener on aircraft must be safetied in some way whether it be safety wire, cotter pins, clips, or locknut's.
