[* 2] A long caliper of 200mm or more helps to align the Y axis smooth rods spacing on any "Prusa type" printers.
[* 3] A general purpose clamp will facilitate the squaring of the frame with a machinist square.
[* 4] Tweezers are always useful :)
[* 5] You can add a dab of blue Loctite #243 to the screws during assembly to prevent them from unscrewing.

[* 6] A torque tool can be useful to ensure you don't damage anything.
