Well, I am about to embark on my first major digital project.
My analog stand-bys (soldering iron, bare wire, perfboard, long-nose
pliers) just won't cut it.  So it's time I equipped myself for wire-wrapping.

I am starting from scratch, and am looking to find out:
  - which tools out there are good, and which aren't (I have heard to
    avoid the Just-Wrap, for example)
  - sources for those good wire-wrap tools
  - good sources for wire-wrap wire
  - Do people prefer bulk or pre-stripped wire?
  - Do people prefer the power wrappers or wrapping by hand?
  - How many different colors of wire do I need to "stock"?
  - Are there any opinions on what the best (or reasonably good) of
    the hand tools (strip, cut, wrap, unwrap) and the best power
    tools (ditto) are, and where to get them?
  - how about those accessories like pins, WW IC sockets, etc.?
    
I don't mind the cost of quality; I intend to be wire-wrapping for many
years to come, so I'd rather get *good* tools rather than *cheap* tools,
if there is a distinction.

Thanks in advance, and any opinions are appreciated!  E-mail and posting
are both fine.  I will summarize if there's interest.

P.S. Thanks to all those who responded regarding crystal vendors!!
