Figured I ask for suggestions on the best way to proceed
Fixing up my SE/30 so far recapped the logic board and installed a BlueScsi, MACSIMM rom and 64mb of ram. plus a Farallon PDS NIC connected to an old Airport express since I'm out of free ports on my router. I also have a couple Asante Mac Cons (ones new sealed in the box)
Went ahead and bought a Powercache P33 for what I think was a decent price. Now I'm trying to decide how to get the accelerator added. Seem like the best idea would be to try to sell a few things and buy Bolle's Ethernet Accelerator Combo card. Just wondering if I have any other options that I should be thinking about.
Also can anyone post a link to adjustment tool for the CRT on and SE/30 and Color Classic something on Amazon would be great.

Thanks in advance

I have one of these for spicy trimpots :

Trim Pot Adjustment Screwdriver (Trimmer Driver), 100mm. ENGINEER da-01, Blue https://amzn.eu/d/0QQdtKZ

Excuse the European link, but hopefully it's a headstart.

FYI on Amazon you can buy a

TP-Link TL-SG105, 5 Port Gigabit switch for $15.99.​

Just attach the switch to your router.

If you want to get the most upgrades into your machine then definitely go with Bolle's, I bought one and its really nice to have the NIC built in and frees up a slot for when an internal grayscale card is released or I can get my hands on one.

Thanks for the recommendation I'm thinking Bolle's card is the best option. The grayscale card would be great as well but I scared to think how much they might cost.
