wire wrap advice

I want to do make some prototype microcontroller boards with an 8051,
memory, latches, ... I think there will be about 10 ICs. I am new to
wire wrapping and need to purchase the tools, wire, and prototyping
board.

Can someone give me advice on what tools, prototyping boards to use?

Also best practices advice would be nice. I realize the importance of
decoupling caps, but what about things like:

choosing boards with ground planes, power buses, and connecting power
and ground pins.

what wire gages to use. Same for power, ground, and signal?

Any tricks for connecting data and address buses?

Specific manufacturers and part #s for tools and boards would be great.

Thanks in advance,

Scott
