That's going to be over-priced (and really not what you want).
Let me do some digging and I'll post some links of what I find.

Here's a basic set I found on Amazon. This set will set you back about 12 US dollars.

A good range of sizes and types and you don't really want the type with a separate handle and head tips. They tend to get wobbly when you need it least.

Here's a nice set in the 20 dollar US range:

The handles are shorter (which is something you want) although you have to "lock" the tips into the handles with a set screw.

Here's a good "bargain" set at 7 dollars US. Don't sneeze at this set. Its really good for what it is. Short handles and a nice selection of blade sizes.

Like I said, try to find a set locally before you go online.

I have the last set the 6 Piece precision screwdriver set. And the smallest of them the 1.4 mm is too wide.

I thinking of sanding of 0.2 mm if it's possible.

There's many type of screws I shall use and 54 of them are very small and it's here my smallest precision screwdriver is too wide-around 0.2 mm

Thanks for providing links to help me.

Edit
I found a set of 11 precision screwdriver-The smallest flat blades 1.0 mm then 1.2 mm and up to
4 mm.

That second set I posted is making me go

.

I have a good set from back in my Tech days and I need more screw drivers like I need another hole in my head.

Still,

I finished building the tank late night this day.

I haven't painted the model-It's one of my Achilles heel.

I have placed one of my 1/35 tank in front of this monstrous German WWII tank.

Yes it is Hogwarts castle to the left-It's Wizarding World 3D Puzzle
