Yes, a magnetized screwdriver is very handy for guiding the screws to their holes without having to fumble with them. (There are a LOT of screws!)

If in Europe, make sure to use genuine Philips-point screwdrivers. The more common Pozidriv point will damage the screw slots when tightening.

Anywhere in the world, it's worth buying a new screwdriver for the K3, because a worn point is the most liable to "cam out" and damage the screw slots.

Extra-long and extra-short screwdrivers are occasionally useful when working inside the K3, to get a better angle on the screw head.
