Tools

- Sockets (a small set that contains ¼ & 3/8 drive sizes will do)
- Screw drivers (pack a multipurpose driver that comes with an assortment of bits that include torx, hex, phillips, & regular)
- Pliers (needle nose and a set of locking pliers)
- Drill and bits (A hand drill with a small set of bits is great for fastening items back together with screws or bolts. Don't forget an extra battery ... and the charger too!)
- Wood and self-tapping screws
- Wrenches (A metric set that runs from 8 to 20 should see you through. You should also consider standard sizes from ¼"-1".)
- Utility knife and extra blades
- Straight cutting tin snips (for cutting wire, heavy-duty tarps, canvas, etc.)
- A saw (a few types of reciprocating saw blades and a folding holder/handle will allow you to cut wood, metal, and plastic)
- A hammer
- Extra washers, nuts, and bolts
- A digital multi-meter (You're bound to incur a loose connection or a split from mice sooner or later. This will help diagnose your issue quickly).
- Polarity tester (this gadget works great for checking the "shore" power to see if it is wired correctly before you plug into it and fry something)
- Soldering iron (great for reattaching wires)
- Mini voltmeter
