Getting the right tools

by claubach

My Problem

Son smashed his iPhone while doing maneuvers in the Army. Decided to replace the screen/digitizer myself. But the crappy tools sent with the parts made the simple job more difficult than it should have been. I have toolboxes loaded with mechanics tools for other work but never was able to get a decent set for working on the wee lil stuff.

My Fix

Easy repair with the right tools. Took my time and it was working within an hour.

My Advice

Get yourself good quality tools and the job becomes much easier. Also, too much caffeine make getting it back together a lot more difficult!
