A wrench is handy too.  I had being able to see the little trademarks,
etc., on the pieces in mind -- but of course I'm sure you knew what I

I used to love that as a kid and more recently would make a pest of myself
at my dealer's garage.  The big thing to dissassemble when I was a kid was
junked TVs and radios because we could usually recycle tubes, unsoldered
capacitors and resistors and make simple circuits from books.  Not much to
recycle nowadays.
