Bought an armorer's wrench when I bought the lower years ago. Also have a 4" bench vise and a set of rubber and UHMW jaw protectors. Got a set of punchs, but really liked the ones that I think you posted with the springs IIRC. Also bought one of the HF work benches years ago to mount my reloading presses on. It has a carpenters vice (all wooden jaws) mounted on one end if needed. I guess I'll do a search for a bench block, if I have too I can always mill one from a piece of UHMW or hardwood.
Thanks for the tip on isolating the barrel when adding the muzzle device or thread protector. Not sure which way I'll go yet. I've read several post reminding folks to measure the exit holes on their muzzle devices. Talk about messing up somebody's day.
