from what I've seen, everything is pretty generic and the same.

Here's what I have and it covers pretty much all needs of mine.

general toolkit

"rodico"

Demagnetizer

Crystal Press

hand puller

Hand setter

Each of the kits I'm looking at comes with both a press and a jig, pin punches, and a mallet. Any guess why?

I scoff in the face of research! DAMN THE TORPEDOS!

That said, there is absolutely no doubt in my mind that I applied too much force.

I ordered https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HL3VJD3/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0928HNGKV/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 to help me move forward.

At the end of the day... I was bored and this looked like an entertaining way to play in a repair space I don't normally occupy. If I can keep the entire experience at less than $150, I'll consider it money well spent.
