Scubatools is the place. But many of those special (and expensive) tools can be worked around or fabricated for the DIYer who isn't worried too much about speed and efficiency. I like their picks, especially the bent hook. But dull the points on all but one you may need for stabbing. And the bullet tool is pretty necessary.

good Book

Got the book. Best $ ever spent. Also have the Manuals for the 5 of the six regs I own. Hats of to Peter Built got most of my tools from them. They work

you're right, it is $50... i really find the value I got out of the book much higher than its price... i am now servicing my own regs for the past 5yrs, and
- i really saved some $
- and it only takes me a couple of hours to service a complete rig, instead of waiting x number of weeks at some LDS
