Jer,
Congratulations on the work you have reported so far. I hope the rest
of the assembly goes well and you find no problems.
Is there a chance that your TCXO is already mounted on the KREF3 board?
My only comment is that I do not like to have any magnetic tools or
trays (or anything else magnetic) on my workbench.
They pick up bits and pieces that I do not intend and can sometimes
inadvertently operate relays when not wanted. Of course, I am working
with a variety of equipment, so my situation is different than only
assembling a K3S, and I do have little bits and pieces (cutoff leads,
etc) laying around on my workbench. Speaker magnets are an irritation
that I can do little about, so I place them away from my work area.
I do keep an old Weller soldering gun next to the workbench and its only
task is to demagnetize my tools when they begin picking up bits.
73,
Don W3FPR

2. Use a magnetic parts tray - even for the SS hardware it helps as they
have some slight carbon content.
3. Use a magnetic tipped screwdriver.
