Assembly Tools

The following tools/extra-materials are required for assembling Jubilee:

• Calipers, cheap or fancy. Both work.
• Budget Soldering Iron for installing heat-set inserts
• Heat-Set Insert Installation Tip. This one will work for M3 and M4 inserts.
• 1.3mm hex key
• 1.5mm hex key
• 2.0mm ball screw hex key
• 2.5mm hex key
• 3.0mm ball screw hex key
• M3 Hex Nut Driver. Filastruder or Amazon
• 0.5 Ton Benchtop Arbor Press
• 2x 4 inch Quick-Grip Clamps for squaring the frame. These are sold in 2-packs, so one pack will suffice.
• 1 pair of 25-50-75 Blocks or 123 Blocks for squaring the frame
• 1 pair conventional wire cutters
• 1 pair hard wire cutters for cutting spring guide and wire rope. Note that cutting these parts with conventional wire cutters will destroy the wire cutters.
• blue medium-strength threadlock such as Permmatex Threadlocker Blue or Vibra-Tite
• A flat surface to assemble the frame. A kitchen granite countertop is ideal, but a table will work too.
