Jan. 9 UPDATE: Note that I spent so long on this doodle that I was unable to doodle for 6 days. That's not really allowing myself time for structured serendipity, is it!?
These are the tools contained in my Guitar Toolkit. I use them to setup, maintain, adjust, tune, and play my guitars and basses. (Excuse the drum key and the putty pad, I am also a drummer.)
A quick photo today. Brushes and drawing pencils on my table.

Time was, a car would come with a comprehensive toolkit, with maybe even the odd spare bulb, as here. Nowadays you don't even always get a spare wheel - my last new car came with a can of instant "tyre repair" gunk, or, add added cost, a "spacesaver" spare, or, at even more added cost, a full-sized, proper spare wheel. Of tools there were none, save for a locking wheelnut socket, wheelbrace & jack.
This is more like it, though, a nice set of bits and pieces, right down to feeler gauge and tyre pressure gauge. I seem to remember that the Soviet Moskvich cars were especially good, being supplied with sufficient tools to do a complete engine stripdown and rebuild at the roadside, should the need arise.
This particular set is the "small tools tray" from a mid-1970s Rolls-Royce.
Our essential toolkit, neatly wrapped in an oily rag. The bikes were stubborn and frequently broke down. It would take a good hour to get them going in the morning and then several breakdowns during the day.
We took out and slept with the spark plugs and battery at night to keep them warm, which seemed to work, but patience for this race was essential.

Don't let a fear of soldering prevent you from doing your own guitar work. If you can play guitar, you already have more than enough dexterity to do it. Basic instructions and how-to videos are all over the Web; spend five minutes to learn and five minutes to practice, and you'll have it down well enough. Just remember:
1. Heat the part, not the solder; apply solder to the part, not the tip.
2. Don't get the parts too hot. That can melt insulation or fry a capacitor (I've 'cooked' a few pots and ruined them from excessive heating after lots of pickup swapping). Using hemostats or aluminum heat sink clips (even larger alligator clips) can keep things from overheating.

Home energy saving kits are now available to borrow at all Dublin City Public Libraries.
The Home Energy Saving Kits have been developed by Dublin's energy agency Codema and contain six practical tools to help the public save energy at home. The items in the toolkits address three key areas of energy use in the home - space heating, hot water and electricity consumption - and can help identify common problems such as lack of insulation, poor ventilation and the appliances in the home that might be driving up electricity bills.
On March 22, 2012 WorkSafeBC launched the Domestic Violence in the Workplace toolkit, a new set of resources to help employers reduce the risk of domestic violence entering the workplace. Attending the launch were Minister Margaret MacDiarmid, Roberta Ellis (Senior VP, WorkSafeBC), Michele McKnight (Head of Domestic Violence Unit, VPD) and Allen Sawkins, whose partner stepped in to assist a co-worker experiencing domestic violence at work in 2000.
This is part of a mid 1940s–mid 1960s diesel fitter’s toolkit.
It was used at the Liverpool Corporation Passenger Transport depot at Prince Alfred Road, Wavertree where it helped to keep Liverpool’s bus fleet on the road during that period. The tools include : open ended & combination spanners, adjustable ratchet spanner, Allen wrench, tap wrench, pliers, pincers, round file, half round file, triangle file, screwdrivers, ball pein hammer, 24 oz. hammer, wooden mallet, hand saw, cold chisel, brass punch, feeler gauge, lever bar, hacksaw, tyre gauge, drill bits, brass grease pump, steel rule and oil can.
If one of the men who worked “on the bench” died in service or retirement it was common practice to organise a raffle for his tools among the others and present the money raised to his widow.
Most of these tools are still specified for apprentice mechanics even today, around 70 years on.
