OP, buy one of the tiny screwdriver kits. It's cheap and it has all the bits you'll ever need.
I paid for my kit about £3. Make sure you pick the right kit for your needs, they are not all the same (different bits). ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

They are obviously not heavy duty, but these are great at opening electronics and worth having in a drawer.
Have something similar and it's got me out of trouble a good few times. ____________________ struan80 - I'll go first - satisfied tick 1 |

They don't need to be heavy duty. When you have screws this small, there's next to no torque on them.
With the kit Pjay suggested, I already built some computers, fixed all sorts of small electronics, wristwatches, glasses frames...
It's all really a ''gentle'' work. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

I've gone through more cheap sets of screwdrivers than I care to mention. Whilst the work is generally light, they are poorly made, don't fit properly in the screws, and deform or break.
Nowadays I use one of these:-

It's expensive (though gone up quite a bit since I bought mine), but the difference is night and day. They fit into the heads, don't damage screws and don't break themselves. I'd not want to go back to a cheap Chinese "jewellers precision screwdriver" set again. |

It has been rather useful, great if you have tiny little things, like T6 screws in a Mac |
