6 " self clamping tweezer

[ka9zap]

A 6" self clamping tweezer works well in place of the needle nose
pliers, every tool box should have one or more they really come in
handy.
For the first time builder this is one of the hardest things to
manage.

Did the mod last week.
I have the KRX3 and I feel that it was not in the way at all.
Nor did I have a problem with the cables.

The most uneasy part was getting the screws and washers in.
The way that worked for me was:

connect the cable(s) to the KSYN3-board;
take 2 crews and inside tooth washers, put the screws (with the washers
over it) in the holes of the Ksyn3 board;
place the board in the socket but do not press it down entirely, so that
you can pull it back towards the KRX3 a tiny bit;
place the splitwashers over the screw-end (now between the KSYNS3 board
and the K3 chassis)using a small nose pliers .
Take a small philips screw driver, place it on one screw, place a thumb
on the other screw and press the board in place.
Then fasten the screws.
Worked three out of four times  :-)
