For the mecahnics tool set, how many of those 263 pieces are you going to be using? A good number of them you never will. Buy only what you need and save.

Do you have a full set of drill bits? Do you have a full set of taps? Do you have a good vise? Nobody on your team wants some machine tools (mill, lathe?) Do you have a circular saw and angle grinder? Do you have an air compressor? Shop vac? One thing I've always found useful is an arbor press. And to go along with that, howabout some keyway and/or hex broaches.
