This is the home of the heavy stuff, and space is tight. The spread-out picture is a poorly-edited composite because the desk wasn't big enough, see full image here. Loads of stuff in here:
  • Clamp-on vise, can attach to the edge of the desk.
  • Thin baling wire. This stuff fixes everything duct tape can't. Particularly toilets that your suitemate can break better than he can fix.
  • Thin hanging wire. Great for hanging things from the suspended ceiling grid.
  • Paint scraper -- razor blade on a big handle
  • Universal power adapter with a dozen tips, fits almost everything and goes from 1.5V to 12V.
  • Little jar of 1/2" stainless sheet metal screws, these little guys are handy
  • US/metric hex key set in sleeve, 1/16" to 1/4" by 1/64s and 1.5mm to 10mm by .5mm.
  • Precision/jewelers' flathead and Phillips screwdrivers. The cheap ones but they work.
  • 100-piece security bit set. The bit I need to take apart the electronic door locks is in there...
  • 26-piece ratcheting screwdriver set, with Phillips/flathead, star, and socket bits. Also works on the security bits.
  • Bazillion-function gauge
  • Two-part epoxy with little plastic tubs to mix it in
  • 1/2" countersink bit
  • Matchbook
  • Automatic wire strippers
  • Third hand tool with the stupid bulky magnifying glass removed
  • Homemade 1.5V-12V variable power supply, uses a LM317T regulator.
  • BK 2704B multimeter
  • Needle and hook leads for the two previous
  • Seal-All tube. Stuff sticks about anything to about anything.
  • Kite string, for general tying purposes.
  • Safety glasses
  • Syringe of Browning gun oil. Very handy for applying light oil to particular points
  • WD-40 pen. It's the perfect size for a tool kit like this.
  • Smallish and largeish zip ties
  • Bottles of rubbing alcohol and trichloroethane. If the first won't take it off the second one probably will.
  • Large rat-tail file, split-loom tubing to protect it
  • Large 10" flat file, in plastic sleeve to protect it.
  • Gritty cut-through-anything blade on coping saw frame
  • Hacksaw on a compact handle.
  • New #2 Phillips, in case I need a perfect fit
  • Flat scraper (more razorness)
