Desoldering vacuum tool (aka. solder sucker)
This tool is useful for cleaning up soldering mistakes but is not 100% necessary for assembling your MAKERbuino.
If you plan to do some hacking, modding, or any kind of hardware repair or rework in the future, buying this one is a good idea.
Helping third hand with magnification
This one is also not necessary but will make your life (and soldering) much easier when it comes to assembling and/or repairing devices more complicated than MAKERbuino.
Multimeter
It will prove useful for testing some tricky connections and measuring supply voltage. Besides that, a good multimeter can help you test resistors, transistors, diodes, capacitors, measure the current, and do all sorts of other useful things.
Solder wick
You can use it along with the desoldering vacuum tool to clean up soldering mistakes. It will clean the excess solder from the places unreachable with a regular desoldering vacuum tool.
