Here's stuff I use practically every time:
- Metric Sockets
- Screwdrivers
- mechanic's gloves (I just got these recently, and have been hitting myself for not getting them sooner! No more dirty, scratched up hands!
- Maglight
I use a flattened bicycle box; softer on a gravel/rock driveway (note-not better than a tarp - just softer and more absorbent - the latter feature a good idea to keep concrete driveways more pristine) - these should be free at your local bicycle store.kamiphloj wrote:...must shade tree outside,spread a tarp under your work area.

I use old sections of carpeting...can be folded and reused. Love those neon handled screwdrivers.keith wrote:Gotta agree with Archinstl about a cardboard box. I try to keep any triwall cartons or cardboard I come across, lot more comfortable than a tarp. Cheaper too.
I find the 6 in 1 screwdriver very handy along with a 12v pump and a tire repair kit for the road.
