Best Time Savings

[ToddF]

My first year on 2363 I noticed how much time was being wasted by people looking for common hand tools. We started buying all new mechanical and electrical subteam students small toolpouches with commonly used tools. Students can do 80% of their work using the tools they carry on their person. This has cut down drastically on wasted time. Over time, students add their own tools to the pouch as needed, and become even more efficient.

Mechanical:
- 3/16, 5/32, 1/8 ball end allen wrenches
- 7/16, 3/8 open wrenches
- 6" scale
- fine point sharpie marker
- tape measure

Electrical:
- needle nose pliers (for tightening zip ties)
- flush cut nippers
- "tweaker" flat head screwdriver
