Hi there. I'm looking for a tool set for circuit board work. I tried digikey but only find discrete stuff. Where can I find such sets?

You might want to be a little more specific about what you're looking for.

Well, just things like screwdrivers, needle nose pliers, diagonal cutters, wire strippers, wire crimpers, magnifiers, knives...
 
I doubt you're going to find the appropriate tools in any kind of a set. Everyone has different needs.
